what could be wrong with this code pls OK, let's combine everything we've done so far into one challenge!

First, create a class named RaceCar. In the init for the class, take arguments for color and fuel_remaining. Be sure to set these as attributes on the instance.

Also, use setattr to take any other keyword arguments that come in.

class RaceCar:

def __init__ (self,color,fuel_remaining, **kwargs):
    self.name =name
    self.color =color
    self.fuel_remaining= fuel_remaining

    for key,value in kwargs.items():
    setattr(self,key,value)
racecar.py
class RaceCar:

    def __init__ (self,color,fuel_remaining, **kwargs):
        self.name =name
        self.color =color
        self.fuel_remaining= fuel_remaining

        for key,value in kwargs.items():
        setattr(self,key,value)

You're close, but there's two issues:

  • there's no "name" field or argument (and the instructions don't ask for one)
  • the "setattr" statement controlled by the "if" should be indented another stop
