Thank you! This is the whole reason I tried using a class method in the first 
place. I was getting an error that said my move method only takes one argument, 
but I was passing in two.

But if I make the super call as super().move(), how does that work? The move 
method in the superclass takes an argument, and if I just do super().move(), 
isn't it the subclass that's getting passed to it? How does the superclass move 
method know what 'self' is if it doesn't get passed to it as I did originally?
