--description--

Now that you have an idea of how the attribute access work, remove the last two lines of your code together with the __getattr__ method.

Then, restore the print() calls you commented out before and delete the second argument from both of them.

--hints--

You should not have a __getattr__ method.

js
({ test: () => assert.isFalse(runPython(`_Node(_code).find_class("R2Vector").has_function("__getattr__")`)) })

You should not have print(v1.z)and print(getattr(v1, 'z')) in your code.

js
({ test: () => assert.isFalse(runPython(`
n = _Node(_code)
n.has_call("print(v1.z)") or n.has_call("print(getattr(v1, 'z'))")
`)) })

You should restore the print() calls you commented out before and remove the second argument from both of them.

js
({ test: () => assert(runPython(`
_Node(_code).has_call("print(f'v1 = {v1}')") and _Node(_code).has_call("print(f'v2 = {v2}')")
`)) })
