Issue

The code excerpt generation system was producing incomplete function examples by omitting implementation bodies, showing only decorators, signatures, and docstrings. This left learners confused, as explanations referenced implementation details (e.g., return statements) that were not visible in the displayed code.

Culprit

The excerpt generation logic prematurely terminated after capturing function signatures, assuming that only the declaration was needed for educational purposes. This design choice ignored the practical need for implementation context in tutorials.

Solution

A smarter truncation algorithm was introduced to show complete implementations for short functions (8 lines or fewer) and meaningful snippets for longer functions. This ensures learners see the full context of code examples while maintaining readability, bridging the gap between explanations and actual code logic.
