Can anyone let me know what is wrong with my code? The instruction of this challenge is very confusing

When I run the code it shows Try again! I am not sure what is the question asking for.

inventory.py
class Inventory:
    def __init__(self):
        self.slots = []

    def add_item(self, item):
        self.slots.append(item)

class SortedInventory(Inventory):
    def add_item(self, item):
        super.add_item(item):
            self.slots.append(item)

Hey George,

Your code is really close

class Inventory:
    def __init__(self):
        self.slots = []

    def add_item(self, item):
        self.slots.append(item)

class SortedInventory(Inventory):
    def add_item(self, item):
        super().add_item(item) # this line is all you need. Since you are inheriting the super class method, you don't need to retype the append it performs. Also you forgot the '()' and the end of super() and you don't need the colon.
