Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 22,669 PointsWhen I run my code in python it never gives false positives...
I also tried the simpler def doubles(self): return self[0] == self[1]
had similar results where it says got true for a non-pair
from dice import D6
class Hand(list):
def __init__(self, size=0, die_class=None, *args, **kwargs):
if not die_class:
raise ValueError("You must provide a die class")
super().__init__()
for _ in range(size):
self.append(die_class())
self.sort()
def _by_value(self, value):
dice = []
for die in self:
if die == value:
dice.append(die)
return dice
class CapitalismHand(Hand):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(size = 2, die_class = D6)
def doubles(self):
if self[0] == self[1]:
return True
else:
return False

But in the challenge, "Hand" originally did not require any argument to create a new instance, and the instructions did not say that should be changed. So when the challenge validates your code, and it tries to create a new "Hand" instance without providing any arguments, that operation will fail and thus the validation does not pass.
