Nice!

Let's move this test below the others so we show how the function works before we show how it breaks,

return number
divisor -= 1
raise ValueError("No such latest palindrome number.")

This error message is incorrect. It is not the the number does not exist, it is that it is larger than our acceptable range.

Why we need change 3 to 3.0 like this
if (number % divisor == 0) and (len(str(number // divisor)) == 3.0): Thanks 😊

Given that 3 == 3.0, it is not necessary but...

>>> 9 // 3
3
>>> 9.3 // 3.1
3.0
>>> 9 // 3.0
3.0
>>> 9.0 // 3
3.0
