--description--

If the number for which you want to find the square root is negative, the code should raise an error as the square root of a negative number is not defined in real numbers.

Remove the pass statement and create an if statement to check if square_target is less than 0.

--hints--

You should remove the pass keyword.

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

You should create an if statement to check if square_target < 0.

js
({
    test: () => {
       assert.isFalse(runPython(`_Node(_code).find_function("square_root_bisection").find_if("square_target < 0").is_empty()`))

    }
})
