Doing the inheritance in OOP python. it keeps spitting back an error, I can't seem to find out why
class Character:
experience = 0
hit_points = 10
def get_weapon(self):
weapon_choice = input('choose [S]word, [A]xe, or [B]ow: ')
while weapon_choice not in 'SAB':
weapon_choice = input('{} is not a choice. You must choose [S]word, [A]xe, or [B]ow: '.format(weapon_choice))
if weapon_choice in 'SAB':
if weapon_choice == 'S':
weapon = 'sword'
elif weapon_choice == 'A':
weapon = 'axe'
else:
weapon = 'bow'
return weapon
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
self.name = input('Name: ')
self.weapon = self.get_weapon()
for key, value in kwargs.items():
setattr(self, key, value)

But I did discover a different issue - did you mean to use self.get_weapon()
, or should that be get_weapon(self)
?

is the correct reference to a method on this instance.
