Remove pass from the body of the Double class. Define the new method. The new method should accept self and one argument. Convert the argument to an int and return it.
class Double(int):
def __new__(self):
self = int.__new__(self.)
self = self[::-1]
return self

Then, once you have it, the rest of the instructions say "Convert the argument to an int and return it.". You won't need to do anything with "self".
