first_class.py

how is my answer wrong to this question:

I'd like to be able to set the name attribute at the same time that I create an instance. Can you add the code for doing that? Remember, you'll need to override the init method.

first_class.py 
class Student:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name

    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()
        return self.reassurance())

hi there,

Your code is fine but you have managed to add an extra closing bracket right at the end of your code - the very last character in the class. Delete that, and you're good to go!

Steve.
