Why does the __iter__ method not go in the Board class?

This code doesn't work, however checking other questions it seems that the iter method has to go in the TicTacToe class, but the question says "all Board instances" so surely it should go in the Board class?

boards.py 
class Board:
    def __init__(self, width, height):
        self.width = width
        self.height = height
        self.cells = []
        for y in range(self.height):
            for x in range(self.width):
                self.cells.append((x, y))

        def __iter__(self):
            yield from self.cells

class TicTacToe(Board):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(width=3, height=3)

You had the right idea, but you have an indentation error. Your "__iter__" method is currently inside the "__init__" method.

Just fix the indentation so that it becomes a direct method of "Board" and you should pass.

Damn, I didn't even think of that. Thanks for pointing it out!
