@Kaushik-19 I suppose that's true, but technically, it's pretty much the same. I believe this should be retired.

I guess in this Kata we can use loops while on the link that you shared using loops is prohibited.

I am searching for a way to find dictionary related 8 kyu katas.

Thank you for the advice though

Click on kata (on the left) and click the 8 kyu badge under dificulty. Or use this link:

cheers

How is this kata any different from this?

So, I was trying to group most solved katas according to teaching order. When I arrived to dictionary topic, I couldn't quite find many katas about it. I wrote a simple one myself, but since it is simple, it got downvoted, and I guess auto-retired.

I am teaching Python to total strangers of programming. They sometimes have problem with even the simplest concept. It is important to give them questions with context, so they can feel the usefulness of different concepts. So, imo, having more of these fundamental katas of different stories is only helping people who want to get into the coding, even if it is quite easy to solve for 1 kyu user.

Besides, I didn't even get a chance to edit anything before the retirement. I published it, slept, woke up to see it got retired. It is a bit disappointing to see all the effort got scratched without an explanation or chance to amend. I mean I will continue to try, but all I am saying is it happened so quickly, it might be discouraging for new kata writers.

This is the link for kata:

What do I do?

no

So I am trying to find 8/7 kyu dictionary katas for Python. Do we have a tag for dictionaries as we have for lists/arrays/strings ?

The kata is designed for total newcomers, readability is also important concept to teach.

It surely isn't, but the kata gives it a context and encourages students to get in close contact with dictionaries. I was trying to find simple katas for dictionaries to show my students but failed, the kata is the outcome of this. Story is just to get newcomers wrap their head around the concept.

Also, do you know how to locate 8 kyu dictionary katas as I failed to find them together via tagging?

Looking up an entry in a directory doesn't seem to be a novel idea.

spoiler flag... x/

Can someone explain what is going on here?
