class Game:
def __init__(self):
self.size = 4
self.card_options = ['add', 'boo', 'cat', 'dev',
'egg', 'far', 'gum', 'hut']
self.columns =['A', 'B', 'C', 'D']
self.cards = []
self.locations = []
for column in self.columns:
for num in range(1, self.size + 1):
print(f'{column}{num}')
if __name__ == '__main__':
Game()
At this point in the video, the instructor ran the file and got all the locations available in the game. I'm not getting that result and can't figure out why...no errors just...nothing!
[MOD: added ```python formatting -cf]

The if __name__ == “__main__”: is indented too far. The “if” should align with the “class”
As the code is now, the if is inside the class definition. When run from the command line, the class is defined but nothing else is executed.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!

Courses Plus Student 8,009 Pointshow did you get it to be formatted properly btw?

Treehouse Moderator 68,454 PointsI wrapped the code with ```python and ```
There needs to be a blank line before and after the whole block.

Courses Plus Student 8,009 Pointsum....with or without the quote marks?
Chris Freeman
Treehouse Moderator 68,454 PointsIt needs to be:
Blank before start of code block
```python
your code in the middle
```
Blank line following close of code block
to yield
your code in the middle
