• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

I have no idea what you think is wrong with your terminal

can you explain it?

[solemn bough]

You're not actually running anything.

You need a main check like ```py
if name == 'main':
Student().talk()

I have started learning python a few months ago

[mild holly]

well not need but, its good practice

[solemn bough]

It's common to have a main function

[mild holly]

cool, but what u think is wrong here (?)

[sullen ridge]

It worked, thank you

but..

In my book, it is not written

[mild holly]

what book

[sullen ridge]

I'm not taking any courses online so i study from a book

It has to be written somewhere to make an object and run the method. Otherwise you're only declaring stuff.

Might be said earlier than this tho, when you learn functions - because that's the same concept, declaring function vs running it

[solemn bough]

Your book may not include that part, potentially because it will cover it over the next few pages

[sullen ridge]

no it have not covered, I've checked

This is my book

[solemn bough]

Yes, it's mentioned on page 353

just no if __name__ == '__main__':

in fairness, it isn't required, just good practice
