Very good here, Python and PyCharm are installed to your computer, and you were able to connect it to your GitHub account.

Good job on this on having the correct functionality. The one task that remains is to ensure that the user can only enter valid input. For instance, when I write "abc" into your program, it returns a ValueError, as an alphabetical string cannot be converted into a float. We also cannot have negative cell or time values. This can be handled using the .isdigit( ) string method that returns a true or a false if the string only contains "0-9" values. It also takes into account negatives, as an entry with "-" will return false. This will be your outer if/else statement. You also want to ensure that your final amount is greater than your initial amount, as this is a growth rate calculator. Your string literals containing these values need to be converted into floats after they have been validated by the outer if/else statement, and then you will write an inner if/else statement to check if final > initial. I will revisit this for a final grade once these changes have been implemented. Thank you for your patience.

Very excellent work here handling your data using lists and encapsulated with functions. Ideally, you will want to put "break" instead of returning an empty value with "return( )", as this results in a syntax error since you are referencing a list indexes in your print statement. If there is nothing there, then there is no index to reference, and you get a corresponding IndexError, so it would just be better to "break" out of the if statement entirely. As this is such a small point, and you did everything else correctly, I will award the full points regardless.

Very nice demonstrated knowledge of dictionary manipulation here. I also like the condensed for loop list you did for species_greater_than_15, as well as the while True loop that insures that input is numeric and correct.
