I wanted to restart the lab because I completed it a while ago and wanted to refresh my knowledge. However, after deleting the files, the lab no longer works.
I’ve tried logging out and back in, and I followed the steps outlined on Coursera’s support page, but nothing has resolved the issue.
I’ve also attached a screenshot of the problem for reference. Could someone please assist me in resolving this?
It helped me retrieve a working version of the lab. However, it’s still not refreshed as new.
Many online threads talk about this method, but it didn’t help. The lab always retrieves an older version which is solved.
As Deepti says, that method should get you a “clean” copy of the latest version of the assignment. This is one of the first assignments in the course, so maybe you are just jumping to the conclusion that it’s completed because the template code contains a lot of code. Their style of writing the template fills in a lot of the code, but leaves the python token None in places where you need to fill in the critical parts of the algorithm. For example, here’s a portion of the clean code from one of the functions in that notebook:
### START CODE HERE ####
# Iterate from bottom to top
for row in reversed(range(num_rows)):
substitution_row = None
# Get the index of the first non-zero element in the substitution row. Remember to pass the correct value to the argument augmented.
index = None
If you don’t look too closely, that looks like “real” code, but it’s not a complete solution.
I just tried loading that lab, and it got stuck at 90%.
So whatever is happening on this thread, I think there is a Coursera issue as well.
Update: Eventually the loading attempted timed-out, and I got a message that said: “Let’s try preparing your lab again. Give it a few minutes and then hit refresh”
