class Hand(list):
def __init__(self, size=0, die_class=None, *args, **kwags):
if not die_class:
raise ValueError("You must provide a die class")
super().__init__()
for _ in range(size):
self.append(die_class())

Treehouse TeacherIt looks like you have an instance attribute called size which means you need to access it with self. self.size

Python Development Techdegree Graduate 11,791 Pointsit looks like you just have an indentation error. the for loop should be inside of the def init just bump the for loop in and that should work
class Hand(list): def init(self, size=0, die_class=None, *args, **kwargs): if not die_class: raise ValueError("You must provide a die class") super().init()
for _ in range(size): # <---- this needs to be even with the if and super
self.append(die_class())

3,675 PointsI tried changing that but it didn't work, then I set it to range(0), then back to range(size)....and now it works.....I'm so confused.
