how to fix takes 0 positional arguments but 2 were given

IllusiveBrian 
When Python tells you "generatecode() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was
given", it's telling you that your method is set up to take no arguments, but
the self argument is still being passed when the method is called, so in fact
it is receiving one argument.

Adding self to your method definition should resolve the problem.
