Why are you calling time as a function, when it is a tijd instance?

Hello Steve,

I found this in my tutorial.

13.8. Instances as return values¶
Functions can return instances. For example, find_center takes a Rectangle as 
an argument and returns a Point that contains the coordinates of the center of 
the Rectangle:
def find_center(box):
     p =oint()
     p.x =ox.corner.x + box.width/2.0
     p.y =ox.corner.y - box.height/2.0
     return p
To call this function, pass box as an argument and assign the result to a 
variable:
center =ind_center(box)
print_point(center)
(50.0, 100.0)


So i followed it but appearently not the good way.

There's a big difference between   print_point() and   print time().

print_point() in your tutorial is a function, presumably defined someplace else.

You used print time(), (no underscore), which uses the print statement, and tries to call a function called time().

Since you defined time as an instance of your class, and didn't do anything special, it's not callable.
