I'm not sure what to do here. It says add an init method that only takes self as an argument, and create an instance attribute called is_hungry and set it to true. I've tried self.is_hungry = True and self.is_hungry = is_hungry
# insert your code here
class Panda:
species = 'Ailuropoda melanoleuca'
food = 'bamboo'
def __init__(self)
self.is_hungry = is_hungry

) at the end.
Also, the instructions say "create an instance attribute called is_hungry and set it equal to True", but instead of True
, this code is setting it to "is_hungry" (which has not been defined).
