--description--

Within the filter_expenses_by_category function, replace pass with a lambda function. Use expense as the parameter and evaluate the comparison between the value of the 'category' key of the expense dictionary and category using the equality operator.

--hints--

You should create a lambda function that uses a parameter named expense and evaluates the expression expense['category'] == category inside the filter_expenses_by_category function.

js
({ test: () => assert(runPython(`_Node(_code).find_function("filter_expenses_by_category").has_stmt("lambda expense: expense['category'] == category")`)) })

You should not have pass inside the filter_expenses_by_category function.

js
({ test: () => assert.isFalse(runPython(`_Node(_code).find_function("filter_expenses_by_category").has_pass()`)) })

--seed--

--seed-contents--

py
def add_expense(expenses, amount, category):
    expenses.append({'amount': amount, 'category': category})
    
def print_expenses(expenses):
    for expense in expenses:
        print(f'Amount: {expense["amount"]}, Category: {expense["category"]}')
    
def total_expenses(expenses):
    return sum(map(lambda expense: expense['amount'], expenses))
