Sort Inheritance code challenge 3 of 3

Could someone tell me what's not correct here?

inventory.py 
class Inventory:
    def __init__(self):
        self.slots = []

    def add_item(self, item):
        self.slots.append(item)


class SortedInventory(Inventory):
    slots = []
    def __init__(self):
        super()

    def add_item(self, item):
        super().add_item(item)
        self.slots.sort()
        print(self.slots)

child = SortedInventory()
child.add_item("Venkat")
child.add_item("Raju")
child.add_item("Rajufjkalsdf")

Hi Venkat,

Not sure if the code at the bottom is interfering with the challenge or not as it does not actually ask you to add items or print them out. Also, the code above the add_item method in the SortedInventory class is not necessary as it is repeating what the parent class is doing without any modifications. Anyway, I tried the challenge with your code with those parts commented out (so the only thing you should be adding is the class and the add_items function) and it worked. I think some of the extra definitions might be causing some bugs with the challenge. Hope this helps!
