I'm not sure why it won't accept this answer. Can anyone explain?

Just as the title says.

rectangle.py 
class Rectangle:
    def __init__(self, width, length):
        self.width = width
        self.length = length

    @property
    def area(self):
        return self.width*self.length

I pasted this code directly into the challenge to confirm that it does pass task 1. If you're getting an error for the first task, you might try restarting your browser.

For task 2 you'll need to add another method.

For some reason it wouldn't work even after a restart of the computer, but today it did work. Thanks for looking into this :)
