Typeerror: __init__() Takes 1 Positional Argument But 4 Were Given

class voting(): number = 0 name = '' surfer = '' def __init__(self, num, na, surf): self.number = num self.name = na self.surfer = surf

Solution 1:

If I got it well, you want the class judge to inherit from the class voting. To specify this you should do it like this :

classvoting():
    number = 0
    name   = ""
    surfer = ""def__init__(self, num, na, surf):
        self.number = num
        self.name   = na
        self.surfer = surf
    defsave_surfer(self):
        file = open("Surfer_list.txt", "a")
        file.write("%07s%16s%16s\n" % (self.number, self.name, self.surfer))
        file.close()

classjudge(voting):
    def__init__(self, num, na, surf):
        voting.__init__(self, num, na, surf)
    defsave(self):
        file = open("Surfer_list.txt", "a")
        file.write("%07s%16s%16s\n" % (self.number * 11, self.name,     self.surfer))
        file.close()
