class Hand(list):
    def __init__(self, size=0, die_class=None, *args, **kwargs):
        if not die_class:
            raise ValueError("You must provide a die class")
        super().__init__()

        for _ in range(size):
            self.append(die_class())
        self.sort()

    def _by_value(self, value):
        dice = []
        for die in self:
            if die == value:
                dice.append(die)
        return dice


class CapitalismHand(Hand):
    def __init__(self, args, **kwargs):
        super().init(size=2, die_class=D6, *args, **kwargs)
    @property
    def ones(self):
        return self._by_value(1)

    @property
    def twos(self):
        return self._by_value(2)

    @property
    def threes(self):
        return self._by_value(3)

    @property
    def fours(self):

    def fives(self):

    @property
    def sixes(self):
        return self._by_value(6)

    @property
    def _sets(self):
        return {
            1: len(self.ones),
            2: len(self.twos),
            3: len(self.threes),
            4: len(self.fours),
            5: len(self.fives),
            6: len(self.sixes)
        }

I see two issues:

  • in your definition of "__init__", you forgot the "splat" operator ("*") in front of "args"
  • when you call the parent (super) function, you wrote "init" instead of "__init__"

After applying both hints to your code and pasting it into the challenge, it passed task 1.

class CapitalismHand(Hand): def init(self, args, **kwargs): super(). init(size=2, die_class=D6, *args, **kwargs) whats wrong with my code help guys.

You need Markdown formatting for critical issues such as indentation, asterisks, and underscores to show up properly.

And always start a fresh new question instead of asking one as a "answer" to another question!
