my outout seems correct..I got dot-dot-dot. Why does it say it's wrong?
from question: "...I've included an S class as an example (I'll generate the others when I test your code) and it's str output should be "dot-dot-dot"...."
message:
Bummer: Didn't get the right string output. Got: dot-dot-dot for S()
code: class Letter: def init(self, pattern=None): self.pattern = pattern def str(self): test=[] for x in self.pattern: if x == ".": test.append("dot") elif x == "-": test.append("dash") return "-".join(test)
class S(Letter): def init(self): pattern = ['.', '.', '.'] super().init(pattern)
class Letter:
def __init__(self, pattern=None):
self.pattern = pattern
def __str__(self):
test=[]
for x in self.pattern:
if x == ".":
test.append("dot")
elif x == "-":
test.append("dash")
return "-".join(test)
class S(Letter):
def __init__(self):
pattern = ['.', '.', '.']
super().__init__(pattern)

This
elif x == "-":
should be:
elif x == "_":

test=S()
print(test)

14,651 Pointsty. that worked. .so when a class has another class passed to it as an argument . what is the diff between test=S and test =S() ?
test = S seems to run with no errors
thanks again

14,651 PointsTY! one more question please. In general I love Treehouse but this section/instructor I find hard to follow.
how do I access the str method? ex: test=S print(test) prints: <class '__main__.S'> not "dot_dot_dot"
if I try to access the method test=S test.str()
i get: TypeError: str() missing 1 required positional argument: 'self'
