Code Select

def isPandigital(n):
digList = list(str(n))
for i in digList:
if str(i) in digList:
continue
else:
return False
return max(digList) == len(str(n))
print isPandigital(3142)

Keeps returning False. HOWEVER

Code Select

def isPandigital(n):
digList = list(str(n))
for i in digList:
if str(i) in digList:
continue
else:
return False
return max(digList)
print isPandigital(3142)
Will return 4

and

Code Select

def isPandigital(n):
digList = list(str(n))
for i in digList:
if str(i) in digList:
continue
else:
return False
return len(str(n))
print isPandigital(3142)
Also returns 4, which both are correct.

So I don't get why it returns false, because if you have the == isn't it the same as saying:

return 4 == 4, which would be true?
ffffffffffff

what the lol how is that testing if it's pandigital
all that for loop is doing is checking to see if each element of digList is an element of digList, which is obviously true
also, there's not really a reason to make digList a list because strings are iterable too
and the reason that it returns false is that you're comparing a string ("4") to an int (4) which will always evaluate to false

but basically if you actually want to test for pandigitalness then you've got to generate a list of the numbers from 1 to n (range(1, n + 1)), then check to see if each digit of your input is in that list and that the lengths are the same
