Another consideration: Susan's code is written for Python 3, but you
seemed to be using Python 2. You'll find that the code won't even run
on your version of Python.

(If you have the chance, ask if the course writer would consider
updating it to use Python 3. There's getting to be less and less
reason to use Python 2 for any new projects; when you start a brand
new system, you should be using Python 3 unless there's something
holding you on the old version. So it's correspondingly more useful to
learn Py3.)
