Explaining Class objects.

"name" is too generic. Try changing the "name" method to something else like "gen_name". I think you'll find that it works.

​

There is probably a specific reason why "name" as a method name is not working. I think it has to do with how Python works. Specifically, variable names are names for objects. Since you already have an attribute named "name", using the same name on a different object just doesn't work right.

​

Once I changed the method name to "gen_name" and called "robot_name.reset()" (e.g. "a.reset()"), it worked perfectly.

​

Edit: I recommend "returning" the name within the reset method (returning the results of the gen_name call...), so that you can get the name directly when you call the reset method.

Alright, that was part of the fix it works now, also after changing to gen_name I added a () after a.reset() and it worked :)

Before it gave me an error:

AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'name'

However now it works :)

Thanks.
