Now make all Board instances iterable so we can loop through their cells attribute. If you need help, refer back to the Emulating Builtins video.

boards.py 
class Board:
    def __init__(self, width, height):
        self.width = width
        self.height = height
        self.cells = []
        for y in range(self.height):
            for x in range(self.width):
                self.cells.append((x, y))


class TicTacToe(Board):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(3, 3)

The challenge says to review "Emulating Builtins" but it is simply underlined and not linked. The actual link is https://teamtreehouse.com/library/emulating-builtins and @kennethlove explains it at the 5:05 mark in the video.

Since this challenge is a bit separated from the "Emulating Builtins" video, it was good to go back and watch the video to understand how this challenge is solved.

Use yield from self.cells when you override the iter method.

just loop through, below works for me def iter(self): for item in self.cells: yield item

code

class Board: def init(self, width, height): self.width = width self.height = height self.cells = [] for y in range(self.height): for x in range(self.width): self.cells.append((x, y))

# Here is the code added            
def __iter__(self):
    for cell in self.cells:
        yield cell

class TicTacToe(Board): def init(self): super().init(width = 3,height = 3)
