3,011 PointsCouldn't import Rectangle
Add a new property to the Rectangle class named area. It should calculate and return the area of the Rectangle instance (width * length).
class Rectangle:
def __init__(self, width, length):
self.width = width
self.length = length
@area
def area(self):
return self.width*self.length
@parameter
def parameter(self):
return (self.length*2)+(self.width*2)

Treehouse TeacherHi there, Shreya Tyagi ! The @area and @parameter are not valid decorators. You meant @property. You can erase the bottom 3 lines of your code for the first challenge.
The second step is asking for another @property and the name of the method should be perimeter which is different than parameter. Even though they only differ very little they have entirely different meanings.
Hope this helps!
