http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/ex48.html is what I am working on, I don't know why my program doesn't pass the test. When I run nosetests I get this error.

and I only put the first aprt of the test in my tests directory. It is this:
from nose.tools import *
from ex48 import lexicon
def test_directions():
assert_equal(lexicon.scan("north"), [('direction', 'north')])
result = lexicon.scan("north south east")
assert_equal(result, [('direction', 'north'),
('direction', 'south'),
('direction', 'east')])
lexicon.scan
is an instance method, not a class or static method. You have to construct a lexicon
, then call scan
on that.
lex = lexicon() # This will create an instance of the lexicon class
lex.scan() # This will invoke the instance method of the instantiated class
