Animal.noise() returns self.sound.lower(). Make Sheep.noise() return the uppercased version of the instance's sound.

What wrong i am doing here that it is showing my code wrong and every time its saying it looks like Task is no longer passing

sheep.py
from animal import Animal

class Sheep(Animal):
      sound ='bark'
    def noise(self):
        return self.sound.upper()

The indentation is too far. Make sure your indents are 2 or 4 spaces and consistant. Ideally a multiple of 4 in the real world. The Challenge editor accepts 2 spaces, where 2 spaces equals 1 tab.

Hi, Looks like it's all correct except some indenting errors

from animal import Animal

class Sheep(Animal):
  sound ='bark'

  def noise(self):
    return self.sound.upper()
