This class should look familiar! I need to you add mul to NumString so we can multiply our number string by a number. Go ahead and add rmul, too.
class NumString:
def __init__(self, value):
self.value = str(value)
def __str__(self):
return self.value
def __int__(self):
return int(self.value)
def __float__(self):
return float(self.value)
def __add__(self, other):
if '.' in self.value:
return float(self) + other
return int(self) + other
def __radd__(self, other):
return self + other
def __iadd__(self, other):
self.value = self + other
return self.value
def __mul__(self, other):
return self * other
def __rmul__(self, other):
self.value = self * other
return self.value

16,725 PointsHey Michael,
I structured the mul and rmul like the add and radd methods above it and passed the challenge(see below), but this course has changed since I took, so I'll have to redo it to provide an adequate explanation. Hope this keeps you moving forward in the meantime!
def __mul__(self, other):
if '.' in self.value:
return float(self) * other
return int(self) * other
def __rmul__(self, other):
return self * other
