4,430 PointsTypeError: __init__() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given
Im getting a TypeError and cannot figure out how to get past this quiz....any ideas?
with the input ["apple", 5.2, "dog", 8], combiner should return "appledog13.2"
class combiner(): def init(self): self.string = [] self.listing = [] self.total = 0
def function(self,info):
info2 = list(info)
for item in info2:
if isinstance(item,str) is True:
self.string.append(item)
elif isinstance(item,int) is True:
self.total += item
self.listing.append(item)
elif isinstance(item,float) is True:
self.total += item
self.listing.append(item)
return ''.join(self.string)+''+ str(self.total)
#with the input ["apple", 5.2, "dog", 8], combiner would return "appledog13.2"
class combiner():

The instructions are to "Create a function named combiner
...", but this code creates an entire class instead.
