I keep getting the error "Bummer: AttributeError: 'Student' object has no attribute 'praise'"
how do I fix this? What part am I missing?
class Student:
name = "Shawn"
def praise(self):
return "You inspire me, {}".format(self.name)
def reassurance(self):
return "Chin up, {}. You'll get it next time!".format(self.name)
def feedback(self, grade):
if grade > 50:
return self.praise()
def feedback(self, grade):
if grade < 50:
return self.reassurance()

54,663 PointsThat should pass provided your indents are correct. The following passed for me:
class Student:
name = "Shawn"
def praise(self):
return "You inspire me, {}".format(self.name)
def reassurance(self):
return "Chin up, {}. You'll get it next time!".format(self.name)
def feedback(self, grade):
if grade > 50:
return self.praise()
elif grade < 50:
return self.reassurance()
You may need to restart your browser.

54,663 PointsSome hints:
- You should indent your class methods and properties
- You only need one feedback method - you can use elif here
