Exercise 4.2 "Authentification" doesn't test correctly
import re password = "Gek1911" pattern = r"([A-Z])+([a-z])*([0-9])+" if re.search(pattern,password): print("Password created") else: print("Wrong format") Returns "password created" in test "lgh1411" when in other parsers returns "wrong format"

"lgh1411" return "wrong format" with your code ^^
however, "lGh1411" or "Lgh1411x" both return "password created" but they shouldn't ;P
you must use 'fullmatch" to test if whole string fulfill the pattern (or add start and end anchors in your pattern) ;)

“however, "lGh1411" or "Lgh1411x" both return "password created" but they shouldn't ;P”
Yes they should return “password created” as the assignment asks at least one capital letter and one number

In lGh1411 the string Gh1411 matches the pattern similarly in Lgh1411x, the matching string is Lgh1411.
wrap your regex between ^ and $ which ensures that the input should definitely match the whole string

it is referenced as 4.2 Practice "Authentification" for me (after the 4.1 Lesson "More Metacharacters")...

That was the hardest practice so far in this course, waw

Mariano Belgrano 🇦🇷 I assumed that your regex was valid: start with 1 or more capital letter, followed by 0 or more lowercase letter, followed by 1 or more digit... wich could make sense, since you doesn't provide the full problem requirements...

The full problem requirement is published in python core curse. The parser which evaluates the code has a bug I guess since differs with other parsers. Please check it

is this the 4.2 practice?
if so, that's a 'pro' code coach, and I do not have access to it ^^
anyway, do you think we are smart enough to guess what is the code coach problem you're trying to do?
without providing accurate informations, you cannot expect get accurate answers ;P

I didn’t know it was not visible to everybody. My apologies. Bu the way as this forum is a shortcut inside the course now I realize is wide open to the entire platform

87.2 Authentication is the name of the exercise

The above pattern will match if you give a uppercase letters, lowecase letters, numbers in an order. otherwise it doesn't match.
if you want to validate a password, the easy way is to create different regexes and test with every regex
[a-z]+, [A-Z]+, [0-9]+
you can also have a one regex using look aheads, like this,
^(?=.*?[A-Z])(?=.*?[a-z])(?=.*?[0-9])(?=.*?[!@#$%^&*()_+=|\><.,?/-])[A-Za-z0-9!@#$%^&*()_+=|\><.,?/-]{8,}$
which ensure that you have atleast one lower case, one uppercase, one number and one special character.

Here's what worked for me:
import re
password = input()
#your code goes here
pattern = r"([A-Z,0-9])+"
if re.match(pattern, password):
print("Password created")
else:
print("Wrong format")
