beginner - object has no attribute

[johnkyp]

Hi everyone,

I am working my way through the python for kids book and one of the challenges requires me to create a class to make a giraffe dance - I know,I know it's sounds silly but what can I say ;-)

The problem is in the last line. Can someone please explain why I am getting this error?

Thank you all. Also, sorry if the indentation gets messed up I am new to the forums.

reginald = Giraffes()
reginald.dance()

the problem is that lines 38-42 need to be indented one level to be part of class Girrafes with definition starting from line 23.
Also note that this class Girrafes effectively overwrite the class Girrafes defined on lines 17-20, i.e. your Girrafes does not have method eat_leaves_from_tress()

Hi Buran,

Thank you for the quick reply. Indenting like you suggested made the code run perfectly.
Also, I am sorry for the missing formatting. It will not happen again.

Have a great day :-)
