Hi Anthony,

Never feel like you have to apologize for trying to solve your problems. I'm just letting you know that if you mentally limit yourself to the tools we've already formally learned, you're more likely to hit the mark with the assignments and not use up too much energy. By the way, if you haven't already taken a look, feel free to peruse the recording from the most recent study hall on Blackboard Collaborate. I go through all of HW4 there and commentate as I do.

You never have to worry about an infinite loop with a for. For loops start with a finite set of data and just loop until they've completed iterating the data. You'd have to do a lot of work to create an infinite for loop. It's a much bigger concern for while loops. The for..else is actually a rather unhelpful phenomenon that has some unique but altogether rare circumstances surrounding its use, Generally speaking, it's just not particularly helpful day-to-day.

When you say last quiz, did you mean Quiz 4? I can see all quizzes and answers and I just double-checked the answers myself in my own cli and did get the correct ones. This isn't something that has to do with the order number is it? Answers are re-ordered randomly between attempts to prevent people from just writing down the letters instead of reading and thinking about the solution. If you do see something like that pop up again, please let me know.
