Really good job on the assessment Zoe! This is incredibly close. We just have a few small changes we would like you to make. The attribute total_owned and the method calculate_missing somewhat break the rule of encapsulation in OOP. The idea here is that one tennis ball will not need to know about another tennis ball, so we wouldn't want to have a method or attribute that relies on data from other tennis balls. These could be good methods on the gym_sport_ball class if we had a database of balls and we ran a query that summed the number of trues on a is_missing? attribute. But, this is beyond the scope of Mod-0 and beyond the scope of Mod-1 even, but I wanted you to know that you are not completely off. So for the updates: Replace the attribute and the method I pointed out above with something else that does not rely on data from any other possible instances. And, delete the top_down_design.md file that is blank. Commit and push these changes. Send us a message with a link to your mod_0_skills repo once you've made the changes, and we will update your status. Once again - I want to reiterate that these are small changes and this is a solid assessment. Great job in Mod-0 Zoe. Reach out if you have any questions about this feedback or the instructions.
