Bummer! Your file has 1 error(s) on line(s) 11: no newline at end of file.

I am certain this should pass, I watched the video but for some reason I do not see what else I should be doing here. =) please help

starter.py 
class MyClass:
    args = [1, 2, 3]

    def class_func(self):
        return self.args

    def first_function(arg1):
        return 'arg1 is {}'.format(arg1)

    def second_function(arg2):
        return 'arg1 is {}'.format(arg2)

The error is explaining that there isn't a new line at the end of the file.

I believe the "cleaner code" sections are teaching PEP styling, and having a newline at the end of a file is something you'd typically want to have.

Thank you =) turns out it was the browser. For some reason it worked in Firefox and not chrome.
