Can't figure out how to access the slots
class Inventory:
slots=[]
def __init__(self):
self.slots = []
def add_item(self, item):
self.slots.append(item)
class SortedInventory(Inventory):
def add_item(self,item):
super().add_item(item)
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
slots.sort()

The attribute slots is inherited from Inventory so it is available as self.slots (the same as is done in Inventory). So a simple self.slots.sort() should suffice.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!

class Inventory:
def __init__(self):
self.slots = []
def add_item(self, item):
self.slots.append(item)
class SortedInventory(Inventory):
def add_item(self, item):
super().add_item(item)
self.slots.append(item)
self.slots.sort()

Treehouse Moderator 68,426 PointsYou are very very close! The overridden add_item method does not need the append operation since the call to super covers the append. Remove the extraneous append and it should pass.
