I have gone through the community forums looking for what I am doing wrong, but when put against others code it looks right, what am I missing?
class Student:
name = "Your Name"
def praise(self):
return "You inspire me, {}".format(self.name)
def reassurance(self):
return "Chin up, {}. You'll get it next time!".format(self.name)
def reassurance(self):
return "Chin up, {}. You'll get it next time!".format(self.name)
def feedback(self, grade):
if grade is > 50:
return self.praise()
return self.reassurance()

The word "is" is another operator entirely, used for identity comparisons instead of values.
