I am using python in a google colab notebook. I created a Restaurant class and set the default value for an attribute number_served = 0. Also created an instance, new_restaurant, of the class. I get an error when I try to retrieve the attribute’s value for the instance:
class Restaurant: """creating Restaurant class""" def __init__(self, name, cuisine_type): self.name = name self.cuisine_type = cuisine_type self.number_served = 0 new_restaurant = ('Secret Sky', 'coffee & sandwiches') new_restaurant.number_served
Error message:
AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last) in () 7 8 new_restaurant = (‘Secret Sky’, ‘coffee & sandwiches’) —-> 9 new_restaurant.number_served
AttributeError: ‘tuple’ object has no attribute ‘number_served’

Answer
When you create an instance of your Restaurant Class, you have to call it like so.
class Restaurant: """creating Restaurant class""" def __init__(self, name, cuisine_type): self.name = name self.cuisine_type = cuisine_type self.number_served = 0 new_restaurant = Restaurant('Secret Sky', 'coffee & sandwiches') print(new_restaurant.number_served)
