Error when output is correct? about interpolation-super-power HOT 4 CLOSED

Thanks @o-psi and @TyJaYo! I've updated the README to indicate that you shouldn't use loops as a quick fix for now, and we'll add it to our backlog to refactor the tests to account for both possibilities in the future.

Hi there,

Raising issues on GitHub should be reserved for problems with the curriculum — not difficulties solving a lab, mistakes fixed via a quick edit, or bugs with the Learn platform (such as lights not turning green or IDE issues).

This issue would be perfect for the Ask a Question (AAQ) feature, where the Technical Coaches (on supported tracks) and fellow community members can help you figure it out. For some tips on how to take full advantage of AAQ, check out this helpful article in the Learn Help Center.

If, after consulting the Help Center and AAQ, you still feel that this is an issue with the curriculum itself, please reopen the issue and provide more detail about why it's a curriculum issue, the steps needed to reproduce the issue, and any additional relevant information about your development environment (local or IDE).

Thanks! 💙

@gj The curriculum problem @o-psi brings up here is that the lesson doesn't say anything like "you have to call each element in the array by index number or the test will fail". I had a similar issue. I completed this exercise 3 different ways before I realized the test was actually punishing me for not repeating myself.

The last bit of the instructions make it seem like you have the option to do it the beginner way (interpolate each reference by index) or the advanced way (loops, getting first char, etc.).

In my opinion the test should be rewritten (or maybe the whole exercise), but the quick fix would be to make it clear in the instructions that the test will expect you to write out the same interpolation six times.

Thoughtful comment @TyJaYo !

Reopening this for our curriculum team to see.
