Evaluation

Run the Checker file to evaluate your code. If all tests pass, your code will be the correct solution. If any fail, check the error messages and make changes to your code and repeat.

Note

  1. Your solution must be written in the bus_fare_challenge file and its name should never be changed.
  2. Your program must make use of the following variable names:
    • 'date'
    • 'day'
    • 'fare'
      Failure to which all your tests will fail.
  3. The Checker file should never be altered at any cost.
