Python Development Techdegree Student 32,971 PointsException: argument of type 'method' is not iterable
Goal: Alright, I need you make a new method named feedback. It should take an argument named grade. Methods take arguments just like functions do. You'll still need self in there, though. If grade is above 50, return the result of the praise method. If it's 50 or below, return the reassurance method's result.
I keep getting the above error though. I don't see what my code is trying to iterate through thought. I'm just checking if grade is greater than 50 aren't I?
class Student:
name = "Your Name"
def praise(self):
return "You inspire me, {}".format(self.name)
def reassurance(self):
return "Chin up, {}. You'll get it next time!".format(self.name)
def feedback(self, grade):
if grade > 50:
return self.praise
else:
return self.reassurance

4,236 Pointspraise and reassurance are methods, you are calling them as attributes, so use instead:
self.praise()
