I've added the mul as I've been doing all along but nothing is happening. Please help me find where the problem is
class NumString:
def __init__(self, value):
self.value = str(value)
def __str__(self):
return self.value
def __int__(self):
return int(self.value)
def __float__(self):
return float(self.value)
def __add__(self, other):
if '.' in self.value:
return float(self) + other
return int(self) + other
def __radd__(self, other):
return self + other
def __iadd__(self, other):
self.value = self + other
return self.value
def __mul__(self. other):
if '.' in self.value:
return float(self) * other
return int(self) * other

Treehouse TeacherHi there, Tapiwanashe Jandura! There are two things going on here. First is an error in the method definition and secondly, you're missing the __rmul__ that the challenge is also asking for.
You typed:
def __mul__(self. other): # note the . instead of ,
But you meant for there to be a comma between self and other:
def __mul__(self, other):
Then you just need to add the __rmul__ method and you should be set! Hope this helps!
