I don't know what's the issue? I'm doing it on pycharm and it's giving me 20 when I print(d20.sides)

class Die:
    def __init__(self, sides=2):
        if sides < 2:
            raise ValueError("Can't have fewer than two sides")
        self.sides = sides
        self.value = random.randint(1, sides)

    def __int__(self):
        return self.value

    def __add__(self, other):
        return int(self) + other

    def __radd__(self, other):
        return self + other


class D20(Die):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(sides=20)
dice.py
class Die:
    def __init__(self, sides=2):
        if sides < 2:
            raise ValueError("Can't have fewer than two sides")
        self.sides = sides
        self.value = random.randint(1, sides)

    def __int__(self):
        return self.value

    def __add__(self, other):
        return int(self) + other

    def __radd__(self, other):
        return self + other


class D20(Die):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(sides=20)
hands.py
class Hand(list):
    @property
    def total(self):
        return sum(self)

The D20's sides are 20.

class D20(Die):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(sides=20)

sides=20 -> You have overwritten the Die class to pass in the sides are 20 for D20.

Megan Amendola Im sorry, but I still don't get where the issue is? "sides=20 -> You have overwritten the Die class to pass in the sides are 20 for D20."

Isn't that what the question asks?

sorry again.

I am saying there isn't an issue. D20's sides are 20 because you're setting them to be 20. So when you print out D20's sides and get 20, that's correct.

If there's more going on, it would be best to share the code you're writing to print things out so everyone can see.

Megan Amendola Yeah! It’s doing what the question wants me to do which is to set the D20 class to automatically be 20 sides without an argument, but it still gives a β€œTry Again” message? 😭

I used your code

class D20(Die):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(sides=20)

and put it into the challenge and it says it's correct. Try typing it in again and checking it. It should work. Sometimes copying and pasting includes extra spaces that could be tripping you up.
