I more or less copied this from the Dice example and ran the same tests in the workspace. I created song instances and comparing two instances for length (s1.length == s2.length, etc.) gives the right answers. So I guess I don't understand what I'm supposed to be doing.
class Song:
def __init__(self, artist, title, length):
self.artist = artist
self.title = title
self.length = length
def __int__(self, length):
return self.length
def __eq__(self, other):
return int(self) == other
def __lt__(self, other):
return int(self) < other
def __gt__(self, other):
return int(self) > other
def __le__(self, other):
return int(self) < other or int(self) == other
def __ge__(self, other):
return int(self) > other or int(self) == other

method should take only one argument (self).
Also, you can simplify the "or equals" comparisons using the operators intended for the purpose. For example:
return int(self) < other or int(self) == other # instead of this...
return int(self) <= other # you can do this

7,929 PointsThat fixed it, thanks! I think I see how int() works now.
