Hi Everyone,
I can't seem to figure this OOP challenge out. I can't seem to return a list with the code that I have know. Could someone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Thank You
import random
class Die:
def __init__(self, sides=2):
if sides < 2:
raise ValueError("Can't have fewer than two sides")
self.sides = sides
self.value = random.randint(1, sides)
def __int__(self):
return self.value
def __add__(self, other):
return int(self) + other
def __radd__(self, other):
return self + other
def __repr__(self):
return str(self.value)
def __len__(self):
return len(self)
class D20(Die):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__(sides=20)
from dice import D20
class Hand(list):
def roll(self, size=0):
for num in range(size):
self.append((dice.D20))
return self
@property
def total(self):
return sum(self)

- since "roll" is called directly on "Hand", it should be a class method
- it also needs to create a new Hand instance which is what it will return
- you don't need the "dice." prefix since you imported D20 directly
- there should be a pair of parentheses after (not around) the D20 when it is created
