Small typo issue in quiz of chapter 10

Question

Dear Chuck,

I guess there is a small typo issue in question 4 of the quiz of chapter 10 where some backslashes are displayed whereas it should not, right ?

What we have:

x = \{ 'chuck' : 1 , 'fred' : 42, 'jan': 100\}
y = x.items()

What we should have:

x = { 'chuck' : 1 , 'fred' : 42, 'jan': 100 }
y = x.items()

The same issue appears in question 9.

What we have:

c = \{'a':10, 'b':1, 'c':22\}
for k, v in c.items() :
    ...

What we should have:

c = {'a':10, 'b':1, 'c':22}
for k, v in c.items() :
    ...

I suppose every student should understand these are typo issues but just to let you know.

Maybe it's already fixed.

If the question numbering changes, please copy the question text as well, it helps. Thanks.
