Tell us what’s happening:

It seems like, i don’t really understand how to do that.
Could someone give a hint please in order to completed this step? 15
The rounded_coords variable should contain the rounded coordinates.

first, round will give back one single numbe, you need a tuple that needs to be (x, rounded_y)

also, if you are doing it with a comprehension, it must be a list comprehension as the requested output is a list of tuples

3

Thank you, but where the rounded_y is coming from?

4

it’s what you need to calculate, the x is already an integer so it doesn’t need to be rounded, you need to round the y tho

I got it done! But without asking for help, it seems like that will never come to my mind.rounded_coords = [(x, round(y)) for x, y in self.__coordinates]

Thank you for your help.
