This part sounds easy but can anyone point out what I’m missing? Thanks!

13,358 Pointsyou are doing great, The reroll method should just return a new instance of the CapitalismHand class.. that's it..
@classmethod
def reroll(cls):
return cls()

18,975 PointsI’m not sure. I did this challenge a while back so I can’t remember. But my best guess is that cls() refers to the Hand class itself. The code is returning a new instance of the Hand class.

14,172 PointsI don't get it much. we're not specifying the class here. How would the programm know that 'cls' is self?
