Data Analysis Techdegree Student 16,258 PointsStuck on Super! coding challenge
Per instruction, I am trying to override the "add_item" method in the parent class by putting super() in the subclass. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thank you, in advance
class Inventory:
def __init__(self):
self.slots = []
def add_item(self, item):
self.slots.append(item)
class SortedInventory(Inventory):
def __init__(self, item, **kwargs):
super().__init__(item, **kwargs)
pass

And you can remove "pass" once you add actual code.

Like Steven said, you're attempting to override the "init" method in this challenge. When it's asking for the "add_item" method to be. You're on the right tracks though!
I would simply change the super() to accept.add_item as opposed to init. Then for parameters, as we saw in the video you don't need to accept 'self'.
Carry on the append(item) like stated in the Parent Class underneath your new super() & you should be good!
