4,419 PointsAs others have mentioned, something is wrong with the Workspace, or the code....
Using the code provided in the Workspace (and even rewriting it on my own), I keep getting the same error:
<code>
from monster import Monster
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/home/treehouse/workspace/monster.py", line 5
sound = 'roar'
^
TabError: inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation </code>
The above results from: <code>
class Monster: hit_points =1 color = 'yellow' weapon = 'sword' sound = 'roar'
def battlecry(self):
return.self.sound.upper()
</code>

24,090 PointsMake sure that you are consistent in your spacing, it will throw errors occasionally if you mix between using 4 spaces or tabs.
