Catching Bugs

The following lines of code are all BUGGY! Read the code and the error messages to identify the mistake.

5 triangle(20, "solid" "red")

Pyret didn’t understand your program around

triangle(20, "solid" "red")

Can you spot the mistake?

6 triangle(20, "solid")

This application expression errored:

triangle(20, "solid")

2 arguments were passed to the operator. The operator evaluated to a function accepting 3 parameters. An application expression expects the number of parameters and arguments to be the same.

Can you spot the mistake?

7 triangle(20, 10, "solid", "red")

This application expression errored:

triangle(20, 10, "solid", "red")`

4 arguments were passed to the operator. The operator evaluated to a function accepting 3 parameters. An application expression expects the number of parameters and arguments to be the same.

Can you spot the mistake?

8 triangle (20, "solid", "red")

Pyret thinks this code is probably a function call:

triangle (20, "solid", "red")

Function calls must not have space between the function expression and the arguments.
