Output

The problem is an exact string match failure between the `titles` list and the strings provided in the `negative` argument. Notice the subtle difference in spacing/formatting: the `negative` string from the request has "On Evaluating Adversarial Robustness" while the `titles` list (not shown in the provided code, but inferable) likely has something like "On Evaluating Adversarial Robustness" or "On Evaluating Adversarial Robustness ". The extra space or missing space is causing the `x in negative` check within the list comprehension to fail. **The Fix:** Normalize the strings before comparison by stripping leading/trailing whitespace and potentially collapsing multiple spaces into single spaces. Change this line:

1
keep_no = [i for i,x in enumerate(titles) if x in negative]
To this:
1
2
3
import re

keep_no = [i for i, x in enumerate(titles) if any(re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', x.strip()) == re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', neg.strip()) for neg in negative)] 
This code first uses `strip()` to remove leading/trailing whitespace from both the title (`x`) and each negative example (`neg`). Then it uses `re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', ...)` to replace multiple spaces with a single space, ensuring consistent spacing. Finally, it uses `any()` to check if the normalized title matches any of the normalized negative examples. This addresses potential discrepancies in whitespace and ensures a more robust comparison.

Output

The issue is an exact string matching problem between the `titles` list and the strings provided in the `negative` argument. The strings don't match exactly due to differences in whitespace (likely extra spaces or different types of whitespace characters). **The Fix:** Use a more flexible comparison method that accounts for potential whitespace variations. Replace the exact string comparison with a whitespace-insensitive comparison. Change this line:

1
keep_no = [i for i,x in enumerate(titles) if x in negative] 
to:
1
keep_no = [i for i, x in enumerate(titles) if any(y.strip() == x.strip() for y in negative)]
This change uses `.strip()` to remove leading/trailing whitespace from both the titles and the provided negative examples before comparing them. The `any()` function checks if *any* of the stripped negative strings match the stripped title, handling cases where multiple negative examples are provided. This approach ensures a match even if there are minor whitespace discrepancies.

The problem is that the titles in the `titles` list and the titles provided in the request arguments don't match exactly. Likely, there are extra spaces or slight differences in capitalization or punctuation. **The fix:** Preprocess both the `titles` list and the incoming title strings to ensure consistency.

The problem is that the titles in your `titles` list don't exactly match the titles provided in the query parameters. Specifically, whitespace differences are likely the culprit. The query string values have extra spaces and newlines. **The fix:** Normalize the whitespace in both the query parameters and the `titles` list before comparison. This can be achieved by stripping leading/trailing whitespace and replacing internal multiple spaces with single spaces.

This solution uses `re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', s.lower())` to normalize whitespace by: 1. **Lowercasing:** `.lower()` converts both strings to lowercase to ensure case-insensitive matching. 2. **Whitespace Normalization:** `re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', s)` replaces any sequence of one or more whitespace characters (spaces, tabs, newlines, etc.) with a single space. This makes the comparison more tolerant to variations in spacing between the input strings and the strings in the `titles` list.

Query

I asked a question about why some code was incorrect. The answer is "because the input contains an extra curly brace }". Does this student answer say that? The problem is an exact string matching issue between the `titles` list and the strings provided in the `negative` argument. The strings don't match exactly due to differences in whitespace (likely extra spaces or different types of whitespace characters). **The Fix:** Use a more robust comparison method that accounts for potential whitespace variations. Replace the exact string comparison with a whitespace-normalized comparison.
