In the line of code below, the map function call does not seem to be updating the modulo_sum variable, and upon adding a print statement into the function that map is supposed to call, I realised the function is not being called? any ideas as to why? I have tried using vscode's debugger, but cant seem to find the solution. Does this relate to how the map function works? from itertools import repeat def getTotalX(a, b): # Write your code here joint_arr = a + b # print(joint_arr) factor_arr = [] modulo_sum = 0 def divide_number(number, factor): nonlocal modulo_sum print('here') if number > factor: mod_op = number % factor modulo_sum += mod_op print(modulo_sum) return mod_op mod_op = factor % number modulo_sum += mod_op print(modulo_sum) return mod_op for i in range(100): map(divide_number, joint_arr, repeat(i)) if modulo_sum == 0: factor_arr.append(i) modulo_sum = 0 return len(factor_arr) Example getTotalX([2, 4], [16, 32, 96]) # result should be 3 The map function is supposed to call the function that divides each element by a factor, and then update a nonlocal variable.
