3,787 PointsI compiled the same code in IDLE and it does not show the same result. Both comparisons returned False.
class Cards:
def __init__(self,word,location):
self.word = word
self.location = location
self.matched = False
def __eq__(self,other):
return self.word == other.word
def __str__(self):
return self.word
if __name__ == '__main__':
card1= Cards('egg', 'A1')
card2 = Cards('egg','B1')
card3 = Cards('hut', 'D4')
print(card1 == card2)
print(card1 == card3)
print(card1)
### Also my print returns object details:
###
False
False
<__main__.Cards object at 0x7fc8733dc250>
####
[MOD: added ```python formatting -cf]

and __str__
are indented too far making then inside the __init__
method.
In effect, these methods are defined as a method within a method and are not accessible for use by comparisons or printing.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!
