Can i assign a method inside of a method?

Hey Duane, a lot of the code you wrote is not necessary to complete this challenge, especially the random module which you imported and the random.randint() function which you used; its a lot more simple.

Regarding the grade, which you tried assigning to random.randint(), don't worry about that. When you run this code, grades will be thrown into your code to see whether your code has the right output. In simpler terms, don't worry about assigning the grade, that is taken care of.

Since grade is not an issue, you can remove the Random module which you imported above (the import random) and the random.randint() function. After this is done, your code will be a lot closer to the answer then it was before; the Random module was holding you back, in other words.

Your code without the random module will look something like this:

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:
            print(f"{self.praise}")
        return print(f"{self.reassurance}")

This is way closer to the answer compared to your original code, but it is still incorrect; you would get this error if you ran it:

Exception: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable

Now in the method feedback which you wrote, you have the gist of what needs to happen. Instead of using the print function with an f string with placeholders -- print(f'{self.praise}'), you can simply call on the praise method by using the return function and self.praise(). The same goes with self.reassurance.

In the end, your code should look like this:

lass 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):
        self.grade = grade 
        if grade > 50:
            return self.praise()
        return self.reassurance() 

When comparing your code to the correct code, you can see it is not entirely different. You basically did the challenge correctly, but you had a few obstacles to overcome.

All aside, good job! If you have any questions, feel free to comment them below.
