2,773 PointsWhere is "Pet name:" coming from?
In the video example the console output includes "Pet name:" as a prefix. I know I can get this to print out if I do something like this on the str method:
return f'Pet Name: {self.name}'
But in the video the only method for Dog is init, so where is that string coming from in Megan's example?

Treehouse StaffHey Diego Perez 👋
That is the challenge for this Practice Session. In the video Megan only shows the code that is provided, the starting point for the challenge. You're tasked to add the dunder str
, eq
and iter
methods to the provided code. The end of the video Megan shows what the end result should look like after you have added those methods.
Hope this clears things up! 🙂

Treehouse StaffHey Luis Gutierrez 👋
This is a Practice Session, in this specific video Megan introduces the challenge in the first minute, then explains the code that is provided to you. You're tasked with creating the dunder methods (str
, eq
and iter
) to have the code behave as showcased in the final part of the video.
I hope this helps! 🙂
ps. For future questions, I highly recommend creating a new post on the forum instead of replying to an existing post. This will get more eyes on your post as replying to old posts will only notify users that have been active in that thread 🙂
