HW 4.5 and 4.6 Incorrecct?

1

I don't understand why these are incorrect. Could someone please point out my errors?

@PeterUdacity In case my answers turn out to be correct, and since I've seen you ask others the same question: I did not use an external editor.

4.5 Better Splitting:

def split_string(source,splitlist):
    list = []
    start = 0
    for i in range(len(source)):
        if source[i] in splitlist:
            if start < i:
                list.append(source[start:i])
            start = i + 1
        else:
            if i == len(source) - 1:
                list.append(source[start:])
    return list

4.6 Improving the Index

def add_to_index(index, keyword, url):
    for entry in index:
        if entry[0] == keyword:
            if url in entry[1]:
                return
            entry[1].append(url)
            return
    index.append([keyword, [url]])

Have you tried to resubmit your code? There is sometimes an error message telling you what was wrong.

Your split string code doesn't return anything.

I missed the return statement in the copy-paste to the forums. I've fixed it. How do I resubmit my code? I thought the grading was only done once.

The grading is only done once, but after the deadline it's just like a quiz so you can submit it again and get some sort of message about why it was marked wrong. It won't change the homework grade though.
