[beta] Use the Reduce Method to Analyze Data - test seems incorrect

See original GitHub issue

Challenge Use the Reduce Method to Analyze Data has an issue. User Agent is: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36. Please describe how to reproduce this issue, and include links to screenshots if possible.

The test says the average should be 8.675, but I come up with 8.52.

The ratings are 8.8, 8.6, 9, 8.3, and 7.9. The average of these 5 numbers is 8.52. Maybe I am missing something. image

@anku255 Yes - we can close this. Thanks for the heads up.

We are deleting all the curriculum seed files from this repo (https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp/pull/17661) and all future curriculum-related PRs should be focused on the https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/curriculum repo.

This said, people may continue to open curriculum issues against this repo out of confusion (it takes time to communicate this to everyone) - it’s no big deal, we can shift them over.
