"No 'score_yatzy' method" error, even though it's right there.

For some reason it's telling me that the 'score_yatzy' method isn't there, even though its clearly stated: 

def score_yatzy(self, hand):
        for count in hand.sets.values():
            if count == 5:
                return 50
            else:
                return 0
scoresheets.py 
class YatzyScoresheet:
    def score_ones(self, hand):
        return sum(hand.ones)

    def _score_set(self, hand, set_size):
        scores = [0]
        for worth, count in hand._sets.items():
            if count == set_size:
                scores.append(worth*set_size)
        return max(scores)

    def score_one_pair(self, hand):
        return self._score_set(hand, 2)

    def score_chance(self, hand):
        return sum(hand)

    def score_yatzy(self, hand):
        for count in hand.sets.values():
            if count == 5:
                return 50
            else:
                return 0

When method code has a syntax error, the typical challenge message just says there is no method. In this case, the error is from referencing "sets" instead of "_sets" (with an underscore).

You'll also need to rework your strategy a bit. You don't have to use a loop for this; but if you do, you'll probably not want the method to return during the first iteration.
