Description
Hello!
At the print_winner function, I noticed that check50 only checks for one specific output format:
printf("%s\n", name);
For example, if I use:
printf("The winner of the election is %s\n", name);
check50 returns an error, even though the output conveys the same information. This isn't a bug in check50 for Tideman, as it is designed to check only for the expected format.
It would be helpful if the CS50x course page provided a clearer explanation of the expected output format in the print_winner function.
Currently, the instructions on the course page (CS50 Tideman Problem) state:
The function should print out the name of the candidate who is the source of the graph. You may assume there will not be more than one source.
I suggest updating it to:
The function should print out the name of the candidate who is the source of the graph. You may assume there will not be more than one source. Your program should output only the candidate's name followed by a newline (\n).
This small clarification could help avoid confusion for future students.
Thanks!
