Challenge Task 2 of 3, OOP, Panda.py

class Panda:
    species = 'Ailuropoda melanoleuca'
    food = 'bamboo'

    def __init__(self, name, age):
        self.is_hungry = True
        self.name = name
        self.age = age

    def eat(self):
        self.is_hungry = False
        return(f"{self.name} eats {self.food}.")

I think I'm close & I've tried a few ways, but what am I missing?

panda.py
class Panda:
    species = 'Ailuropoda melanoleuca'
    food = 'bamboo'

    def __init__(self, name, age):
        self.is_hungry = True
        self.name = name
        self.age = age

    def eat(self):
        self.is_hungry = False
        return(f"{self.name} eats {self.food}.")

Hey Mo Reese ! :wave:

You are indeed extremely close! :smiley:

I just copy/pasted your code in from your second code block above and all I needed to do was remove the ( ) around the return statement.

class Panda:
    species = 'Ailuropoda melanoleuca'
    food = 'bamboo'

    def __init__(self, name, age):
        self.is_hungry = True
        self.name = name
        self.age = age

    def eat(self):
        self.is_hungry = False
        return f"{self.name} eats {self.food}."

Nice job! :thumbsup:
