@0:51 while i < i + 2 | remains true because whatever value i is incremented to, that value will always be less than i plus 2, so you get 0 < 0 + 2 | 1 < 1 + 2 | 2 < 2 + 2 ... so its always true as you noted but the trick there is to do the math for the loops first then reason about the T/F values of the while condition at each iteration of the loop

@1:29 # Using "print" as a variable (not recommended)
print = "Hello, World!"
print(print) # This will raise an error because "print" is now a string, not a function

# Better practice: Choose a meaningful variable name
message = "Hello, World!"
print(message) # This works as expected

Sorry but I am confused by questio-22, the AI chatGPT4 says Question-22 is wrong 😂😂😂
I asked this question in chatGPT4 and it said that the proper answer is [0, 1, 9, 16] and NOT [0, 1, 4, 9].
As the AI says there is no code instructing the func() to delete the last position, the func() only says to delete list[2], which results in [0, 1, 9, 16]
This is coming straight from chatGPT4 when I place the code snippet in chatGPT4, which is the latest model.

The reason why I checked this in chatGPT4, was because I was confused as to why you were deleting the number 16 when no instructions or func() said to do so. 🤔
So I wanted to verify with chatGPT4. 🤷‍♀

Quick question is this the final test for the certification or is it just for practice?

[shinyjay.]

can you explain how you got syntax error for number 30? Shouldn't it be zerodivionerror??
