Question

ps10 prob 4:
the class Hand assigns a var self.initialSize. I want to use this variable in my class ComputerPlayer but I am not sure of the syntax on how to access it.

Answer 1

Hand.initialSize

like that?

Answer 2

That gives the following error message
File "C:\Python27\ps10 prob 4", line 254, in pickBestWord
n=Hand.initialSize
AttributeError: type object 'Hand' has no attribute 'initialSize'

Answer 3

well.. we can't really know how you are trying to use it unless you post your code or even just a simplified version showing what you are trying to do.
have you read section nine of the tutorial?

Answer 4

Well that error indicates that the class "Hand" does not have an "initialSize" variable, therefore you cannot assign it a value since it does not exist.
