I keep having trouble with this question, the class returns int without doubling it, how can I change my code to make it work. And also what is the use to override the new if I need to use it
class Double(int):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
def __new__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__new__(*args, **kwargs)
double = int*2
return double
int = Double()

The "__new__" method should not be inside the "__init__" method.
