In subsequent tasks, trailing spaces in the answer are ignored, but this isn't the case for Problem 3, which is an inconsistency.

Hmm, perhaps it isn't related a trailing space. I sometimes seem to hit an issue where my output is identical to the supposedly correct output, but is deemed incorrect.

The problem was, I was clicking the Python 3 button after pasting my answer, and then I clicked submit before the server put in the generated answer.

Ah, thank you for resolving this!

To be honest you at first puzzled me so much that I tried to reproduce the issue and failed to respond in time, sorry!

By the way it is a hint that probably submission button should be disabled while solution is being generated! I'll try to care about it, thank you!

I think I would have figured this out much sooner if a failed problem attempt displayed the incorrect answer that was given, and not just the correct answer.

Thanks for your suggestion! I was told about it few times, but only after your advice I at last composed myself enough to make necessary improvement.

I hope it works now!
