Checkpoint 1

Feeling relieved to have gotten all the functions working. I had one l
ast problem and after posting to Discord and was actually able to figure
it out myself (somehow seeing it in the message board instead of the
terminal made it more obvious, I ended up deleting the post from Discord
since it was super specific).
I found this part of the lab to be kind of challenging as it was not
very straightforward and was somewhat frustrating at times. I feel
like a bit more documentation or background on dictionaries could have
helped, but I was ultimately able to solve the problem by searching
online and trying to think each line through. It also took me a while
to realize we were using a list of dictionaries and keeping that in the
front of my mind helped me get past the final issues I was having.
