Can you try sending it again WITHOUT using Yahoo's "Rich Text" (HTML mail)? I will try to reverse-engineer what you meant: def manipulate_data(kind, data): if kind == 'list': return list(data)[::-1] elif kind == 'set': data=set({"a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "ANDELA", "TIA", "AFRICA"}) return set(data) elif kind == 'dictionary': return dict.keys(data) manipulate_data("list", range(1,6)) manipulate_data("set", {"a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "ANDELA", "TIA", "AFRICA"}) manipulate_data("dictionary", {"apples": 23, "oranges": 15, "mangoes": 3, "grapes": 45}) Is that what you intended? > CODE RESULT > > > But i cant proceed to next stage...see error below Pls assist I looked below, but you have not included the error. Perhaps you included it as an attachment? In that case, it would probably be deleted, and if it is a screen-shot, it will be useless to anyone who is blind or visually impaired and reading this using a screen reader.
