class RaceCar: def init(self, color, fuel_remaining, laps, **kwargs): self.color = color self.fuel_remaining = fuel_remaining self.laps = 0 for key, item in kwargs.items(): setattr(self, key, item) def run_lap(self, length): self.fuel_remaining = fuel_remaining/(length * 0.125) self.laps = self.laps+1
class RaceCar:
def __init__(self, color, fuel_remaining, laps, **kwargs):
self.color = color
self.fuel_remaining = fuel_remaining
self.laps = 0
for key, item in kwargs.items():
setattr(self, key, item)
def run_lap(self, length):
self.fuel_remaining = self.fuel_remaining-length * 0.125
self.laps = self.laps+1

Treehouse TeacherHi there, Oleg Fedorov! It doesn't produce any errors, but it doesn't work as expected, which is slightly different. Right now, you're sending in laps as a parameter, which is what you want. But then you immediately overwrite that to be 0. So it doesn't matter what anyone sends in, it still gets set to 0 regardless. The key here is to set a default value for laps so that if they put in nothing, it will be 0, but otherwise, it will be whatever they gave to the __init__.
Consider the following:
def __init__(self, color, fuel_remaining, laps=0, **kwargs):
self.color = laps
Hope this helps!
