--description--

Now it's better but you don't want to print the details about the starting node.

Before the print call, add an if statement to execute when node is equal to start and use the continue keyword to go to the next loop iteration.

--hints--

You should nest an if statement to check that node is equal to start inside your for loop.

({ test: () =>  {
    const shortest = __helpers.python.getDef(code, "shortest_path");
    const {function_body} = shortest;    
    assert(function_body.match(/^(\s{4})for\s+node\s+in\s+targets_to_print\s*:\s*^\1\1if\s+(node\s*==\s*start|start\s*==\s*node)\s*:/m));
  }
})

You should use the continue keyword to go to the next iteration inside your new if statement.

({ test: () =>  {
    const shortest = __helpers.python.getDef(code, "shortest_path");
    const {function_body} = shortest;    
    assert(function_body.match(/^(\s{4})for\s+node\s+in\s+targets_to_print\s*:\s*^\1\1if\s+(node\s*==\s*start|start\s*==\s*node)\s*:\s*^\1\1\1continue/m));

  }
})
