Inheritance of class attributes
Earlier in the course, you learned about class attributes and methods that are shared among all the instances of a class. How do they work with inheritance?
In this exercise, you'll create a subclass of the Player class you worked with earlier in the chapter and explore the inheritance of class attributes and methods.
The Player class has been defined for you, and the code provided here:
class Player:
MAX_POSITION = 10
def __init__(self):
self.position = 0
def move(self, steps):
if self.position + steps < Player.MAX_POSITION:
self.position += steps
else:
self.position = Player.MAX_POSITION

Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
# Create a Racer class inheriting from Player
____(____):
# Create MAX_POSITION with a value of 15
____ = ____
# Create a Player and a Racer objects
p = ____
r = ____
print("p.MAX_POSITION = ", p.MAX_POSITION)
print("r.MAX_POSITION = ", r.MAX_POSITION)
