Looks like you only made a typo in your init function name so it is not overriding it correctly. You put int instead of init
It should be:
def __init__(self, hit_points, weapon, color, sound):
MUZ140920 Kudakwashe Murungu

class Monster:
def __int__(self, hit_points, weapon, color, sound):
self.hit_point = hit_points
self.weapon = weapon
self.color = color
self.sound = sound
def battlecry(self):
return self.sound.upper()
this is my class. and below is where im trying to access the class variables
__author__ = 'Murungu'
from monster import Monster
slimey = Monster(5, 'sword', 'blue', 'glug')
print(slimey.color)

27,771 PointsCan you post the rest of your code. I believe the error is because your Monster class takes no parameters.
