Answer to the it's odd challenge

Hi again,

I've done the module and got to the challenge but as usual I'm having issues with the challenge. Please can someone show me the correct code?

If you don't get one section of the challenge right there is no way of finding out where you went wrong, the hints don't help. I can't work out what I'm supposed to do and can't work out why I keep getting it wrong. Now I exited the challenge I can't even reopen it, I've done the end of section quiz about 30 times now but the challenge screen doesn't come up. I now feel stupid and like I should quit as I can't work it out, I've wasted almost 3 hours just trying this, same on previous quizzes and I just have to give up and continue with the course without any understanding of where I'm going wrong, it's frustrating and time consuming, why can't the answers be acessable?

Hi Jo-ann de la Mare! Could you provide a link to the challenge you're having issues with and also a copy of the code you entered? Thanks! :)

In programming, there is rarely only one "correct" solution. Generally, any code that meets the requirements is "correct".

If you need help with a specific task, please provide a link to the course page you are working on, and show the code you've tried so far. If it's for a challenge, the "Get Help" button on the page should start a question and add the link and code for you.

And If you go back to the course index using the link at the top left (above the bar with the circles), you can go directly to any challenge or other page in the course.

Sorry guys, I'm clearly very dumb, I genuinely can't get back to any of the challenges! I can get to the course index will all the steps but the challenges come up after the quiz, I've redone the quizzes on each and it just doesn't show the challenge! I'd like to revisit them as so far I've had to give up on each one as I couldn't work out why I got the bummer message every time (not sure if I'm making fundamental code errors, silly minor errors, or even if my UK spelling is whats throwing it off). I can bring up all the lessons, just not the code challenges. My partner is having the exact same issues on challenges as I am. So sorry, feeling super stupid right now. :(

The challenges are listed in the index, just like the lessons and quizzes. You may need to get help from the Support staff on this one.
