I am having problems creating the instance

I have to make an instance of my class named "me". Then print out the name attribute of my instance.

first_class.py 
class Student:
    name = "Daniel"
    me = Student()
    me.name

Hi Daniel Mula Tarancón,

You're really close. The issue is the the second part of the challenge there where you need to:

Now, make an instance of your class named me. Then print() out the name attribute of your instance.

You need to fix your indentation so you're not instantiating the class object inside the class, and also you'll need to add the print() function as per challenge requirements.

Something like: 

# Nailed this part 
class Student:
    name = "Daniel"

# Fixed indentation, added required print function
me = Student()
print(me.name)

Really nice work, you almost had it. Keep pushing forward and having fun!
