(Solved) Type Object has no attribute

by


You have three class attributes: RANKS, SUITS and BACK_Name.

class Card:
    # Class Attributes:
    RANKS = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
    SUITS = ('s', 'c','d','h')
    BACK_Name = "DECK/b.gif"

You haven’t defined fileName as a class attribute so trying to get an attribute named fileName will raise an AttributeError indicating that it doesn’t exist.

This is because fileName, or rather, _fileName has been defined as an instance attribute via self._filename:

# Instance Attributes:
def __init__(self, rank, suit):
    """Creates a card with the given rank and suit."""
    self.rank = rank
    self.suit = suit
    self.face="down"
    self._fileName="DECK/" + str(rank) + suit[0] + '.gif'

To access this attribute you must first create an instance of the Card object with with c = Card(rank_value, suit_value); then you can access the _filename via c._filename.
