Dont know what I did wrong dice.py

From what I understand I have met all requirements. Let me know what I am missing! Thanks

dice.py 
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

class D20(Die):
    def__init__(self, value=0):
        super().__init__(sides=20, value=value)
hands.py 
class Hand(list):
    @property
    def total(self):
        return sum(self)

A little tricky one.

For your __init__ on the D20 class, you don’t want to provide any additional arguments needed to run the function.

def __init__(self) is all you’ll need.

For your super(), since the parent class only has one argument you’ll just want to pass the default value you’ll want into this argument.

super().__init__(20)

And you’ll be all set! :)

[MOD: added ` escaping for code strings -cf]

Darryl Mah, I've added the escape backtick character ` (left of the 1 on most keyboards). This markdown implies the enclosed text should be shown as monospaced characters and ignores other markdown within (like underscores of __init__).
