Prompt and answer text are verbatim; usage is as the API reported it, and cost_usd is the API's reported cost (equal to the published per-token rates). Rendered by scripts/landing-pages.mjs.",
 "prompt": "This Python function should return the median of a list of numbers, but this check fails:\n\ndef median(values):\n    s = sorted(values)\n    return s[len(s) // 2]\n\nassert median([4, 1, 3, 2]) == 2.5\n\nFind the bug, explain it in one sentence, and give me the fixed function.",
 "answer": "The bug is that for an even-length list, the index `len(s) // 2` returns the upper middle element instead of the average of the two middle values.  \nHere’s the fixed function:\n\n```python\ndef median(values):\n    s = sorted(values)\n    n = len(s)\n    mid = n // 2\n    if n % 2 == 0:\n        return (s[mid - 1] + s[mid]) / 2\n    else:\n        return s[mid]\n```",
