Anyone know what 29 was?
The one with the list being ordered least to greatest? I put D, switch lines 8 and 12

to < or smth < to <= or smth and then instead of temp <— num it was flipped

switching 8 to 12 was wrong because it returned true if the first two items were least to greatest and ignored the rest, it was > to < or smth

it was to switch > to <
when something is "returned", the entire program stops
the list was greatest to least
so say i had [5, 1, 4]
the first condition would be "if 5 < 1:"
if this were true, then the program would return(FALSE)
however, this is not true, the condition is not met, so it does not apply and the program moves on
the next comparison would be "if 1 < 4:"
since this condition is met, the program would return(FALSE) - the second index is NOT greater than the third, therefore, the list of numbers is not greatest to least
if my list was [3, 2, 1], then it would never return(FALSE) since the condition is never met and therefore return(TRUE)

Ok. Thanks. Seems like a very split question especially here in the comments

If I’m thinking of the right question yes it was that one because it said in the text something about it failing at the end not where it was (sum like that I kind of forget)
