• if you can fill an order based on stock, return true else return False. SKUs baby!

def fillable(stock, merch, n):
    for key in stock:
      if merch in stock:
        if key == merch and stock[key] >= n:
          return True
          break;
        elif key == merch and stock[key] < n:
          return False
      else:
        return False
        break; 
    return

• find the distance travelled by an elevator (basically floor before minus floor above in abs value). This was interesting; you could either zip or use list comprehension for this

def elevator_distance(array):
    # use list comprehension
    arr = [array[i - 1] - array[i] for i in range(1, len(array))]
    total = 0
    
    for i in arr:
      total = total + abs(i)
    return total

• sum array of all elements that don’t have dupes

def repeats(arr):
    arr1 = []
    arr2 = []
    total = 0
    for i in arr:
      if arr.count(i) == 2:
        arr1.append(i)
      else:
        arr2.append(i)
    for i in arr2:
      total = total + i
    return total

• check area code, match with region

def detect_operator(num):
    code = (str(num)[1:4])
    if (code == "039"):
      return "Golden Telecom"
    elif (code == "050") or (code == "066") or (code == "095"):
      return "MTS"
    elif (code == "063") or (code == "093"):
      return "Life:)"
    elif (code == "068"):
      return "Beeline"
    elif (code == "099"):
      return "MTS"
    elif (code == "067") or (code == "096") or (code == "097") or (code == "098"):
      return "Kyivstar"
    else:
      return "no info"
    return

• this was unnecessary. Returning type but wasn’t passing. Unexpectedly, got it to pass tests.

def types(x):
    try:
      a = ((type(x)))
      return a[8:-2]
        
    except:
      return x
