Course 4 Week 2 Alpaca model / Error of Data Augmentation

Course Q&A Deep Learning Specialization Convolutional Neural Networks

H​ello!

I​ have been struggling how to solve the following error, which I assume I have some issue in the part of “apply data augmentation to the inputs”.
Is it better not to use “data_augmenter()” which is defined previously? or
“inputs” as input data for data augmentation is wrong?
It is appreciated if someone give me advice.

You should not reference the global value that is passed to the parameter data_augmentation: you should just use the parameter value itself. That is a function reference, so you can treat it as such.

Thank you very much for the advice. Now I can define and it works!
