help (EDITED)

Add a str method to GameScore that returns the score in the string "Player 1: 5; Player 2: 10", using the correct values from self.score. self.score is a tuple with Player 1's score and Player 2's score like (5, 10).

My code:

from game import Game class GameScore(Game): pass def str(self): return "Player 1: {5}; Player 2: {10}".format(self.score[5], self.score[10])

Here's the code

from game import Game
class GameScore(Game):
  def __str__(self):
  return "Player 1: {}; Player 2: {}".format(self.score[0], self.score[1])

Now correct it like Kenneth Love suggests:

Looks like you didn't indent the body of the function.

I used it and passed both challenges.

Here's what passed for me:

from game import Game

class GameScore(Game):
    def __str__(self):
        self.score = (5, 2)
        return "Player 1: {}; Player 2: {}".format(*self.score)

Getting this error Bummer! Expected "Player 1: 5; Player 2: 2". Got "Player 1:5; Player 2:2".

from game import Game

class GameScore(Game): def str(self): return "Player 1:{}; Player 2:{}".format(*self.score)
