I must be missing something obvious about classes and methods here. When I run the code below as a classless function in the work-space (with some obvious substitutions - as seen below), it checks out. I try to run it in the code chellenge and I get an error.
Here's the code in work-space: def morse(pattern): converted = [] for item in pattern: if item == ".": converted.append("dot") elif item == "_": converted.append("dash") print('-'.join(converted))
morse(trial)
More than just showing me how to pass the challenge, WHAT am I missing about classes?
class Letter:
def __init__(self, pattern=None):
self.pattern = pattern
def __str__(self):
converted = []
for item in self.pattern:
if item == ".":
converted.append("dot")
elif item == "_":
converted.append("dash")
return '-'.join(converted)
class S(Letter):
def __init__(self):
pattern = ['.', '.', '.']
super().__init__(pattern)

4,098 PointsI just copy-pasted and it passed... bahahaha.
Up until that try, I kept getting the generic "Bummer" message.
I must have made it bug somehow. On the other hand, it DID lead me to a much more practiced exploration of classes, methods and instances. So... not all bad. Frustrating, but informative! 4.5 stars. Would definitely recommend.
