initializing a sub-class [Solved]

Hi guys, I'm trying to complete this code challenge, but I'm getting a syntax error on init . Here's the Challenge question: Create a new class named Dragon that extends the Monster class. Don't forget to import Monster from monster. Give your Dragon an integer size attribute..
