Should it be marked wrong? Or is my logic broken?

Question

I had this practice in the Python for beginners course (33.2):

The code should take a number of floors in a building as input, and it should output the floors that have a bathroom, 1 every 5th floor.
Eg. INPUT 23 OUTPUTS 5, 10, 15, 20.

This is my code (marked correct, but…):

But isn’t it wrong? “20” as input will not print 20.
n+1 would solve the problem tho, it’s marked correct too.
Should my 1st code be marked incorrect? Or am I wrong?

Answer 1

Okay, makes sense, and they even mention the range bounds. Looks like they were just being easy and didn't provide test cases that would break it

Answer 2

Hamsdino I think they just didn't consider input that are multiples of 5 in the test cases. :)

Answer 3

I didn't "decide what to do", I asked to you have a look at the previous comments.

This way, you can find out that the OP has found a solution and the problem/ confusion is particularly about the sololearn test cases.

Answer 5

Have a look at the range function: The upper bound is NOT INCLUDED: [lower; upper)

Answer 6

Per Bratthammar Hello. My answer is already correct though. But I wonder WHY it’s correct.

Answer 7

range is everything but not including the last. So if you input 20, the last number checked will be 19

When you take input, just add 1 to it

Answer 8

Slick and Lisa
I know that, but why is it marked correct too when I dont add +1 to the input? That’s what I’m curious about.

Answer 9

You can let them know to stop future confusion, but i don't think that was the point of the excersize

Answer 10

Rahmatova Gulnoza Please read the thread's description and the previous answers

Answer 11

Paste the problem details. It probably because thats what it asked for

Answer 12

Hamsdino
Hi! Try put your range from 1 to n + 1.
In the loop put a if statement with the condition that i modulo 5 will give no rest. Only print i when the if statement is true.

Answer 13

Slick

A group of buildings have restrooms on every 5th floor. For example, a building with 12 floors has restrooms on the 5th and 10th floors.
Create a program that takes the total number of floors as input and outputs the floors that have restrooms.

Sample Input
23

Sample Output
5
10
15
20

You can define a range with the corresponding rules and output the numbers in that range. Remember, that range (a, b) includes a, but does not include b.

Lisa
That must be the case :( they’re too nice with us, that got me confused. Thank you

Answer 15

Slick Yeah, probably. But since I always try to break it, it got me confused lol Do you think it was on purpose or should it be reported?

Answer 16

Slick Thank you!

Answer 17

Lisa! It's not up to you to decide what I do!
