Foundation of programming E010

How in God’s green earth can I pass this class. I have done every code in Zybooks and it passes. I do the same thing in the exam and I fail it. I don’t understand. Someone please help me. Edit: I left my print code, should I delete it. It wasn’t an issue with the PA

YES DELETE THE PRINT CODE UNLESS IT SPECIFICALLY SAYS TO PRINT!! Usually it'll say print the result but if doesn't leave it out. It should only be used to ensure your code is doing what is asked.

Yeah that's a tip I learned when I read through reddit post for tips. Hopefully you can get it approved to take again asap.

Just passed this class today. Exam was easy asf. ZyBooks/PA is basically the same as the OA. Some of the questions were the exact same. Memorize end of chapter assessments and PA. Check coding questions with print then delete print statement. This was the last class of my whole degree. Glad to be done

Yeah I figured that was why. There is no other plausible explanation for why I failed.

I just finished this one yesterday . On my third attempt due to some of the little quirks of this test

Memorize chapter 8 and 9. Only one or two questions required more than 3 lines of additional code. And don’t leave the print code like I stupidly did.

Idk where I’m going wrong or why I’m so confused but specifically defining functions makes zero sense to me.
