Python Object-Oriented Python (retired) Inheritance Score Method

Posted by Jay Bennett

Stumped on score method, OO Python, Inheritance.

class Game:
  def __init__(self):
    self.current_score = [0, 0]

For the life of me, I can't figure out how to complete the problem. The closest I can get is this:

def score(playernum, self):
  self.current_score[playernum-1] = self.current_score[playernum-1] + 1

Your solution is passable with one exception. self comes first in the method arguments.

Just to add, the editor stole my underscores for the dunder init function.
