Execution of lesson 1 contract (SimpleStorage on Remix) fails

[pythoulon]

After many tries, I resorted to copy the code directly from the GitHub repository https://github.com/PatrickAlphaC/simple_storage to make sure I didn't have anything fishy in my code. I still have the following problem:

1. I type a string and a number in the "addPerson" box (eg "me", 5)
2. I click on the addPerson button
3. I click on the people button to view the results, and I get this error message: call to SimpleStorage.people errored: Error encoding arguments: Error: invalid BigNumber string (argument="value", value="", code=INVALID_ARGUMENT, version=bignumber/5.4.1)

It looks like the entry was never added to people array, nor to the nameToFavoriteNumber mapping for that matter. I've been using different versions of the compiler, with the same results. I compile and deploy OK on the Javascript VM.

Any idea what might be wrong ?
Thanks.

Just tested, it is working for me:

Lucky guy... Mine keeps failing. See error in the log pane.

if you are clicking people you have to set the index first on the right

Argh, silly me. Thanks a lot!

I spent 30 minutes doing the same mistake. Thanks, both, this helped!
