Well… I was playing with Phyton but I can’t beat this level.  
I don’t know what’s wrong, so I hope you can help me \<3

Here’s my code:

> def commandPeasant(peasant, coins):  
> # Command the peasant to the nearest of their array  
> distance = 0  
> for i in coins:  
> coin = coins[i]  
> if distance == 0:  
> distance = peasant.distanceTo(coin)  
> item = coin  
> elif distance \< peasant.distanceTo(coin):  
> distance = peasant.distanceTo(coin)  
> item = coin
> 
> ```
> hero.command(peasant, "move", item.pos)
> 
> ```

> friends = hero.findFriends()  
> peasants = {  
> “Aurum”: friends[0],  
> “Argentum”: friends[1],  
> “Cuprum”: friends[2]  
> }

> while True:  
> items = hero.findItems()  
> goldCoins =   
> silverCoins =   
> bronzeCoins =   
> for item in items:  
> if item.value == 3:  
> goldCoins.append(item)  
> # Put bronze and silver coins in their approriate array:  
> if item.value == 2:  
> silverCoins.append(item)  
> if item.value == 1:  
> bronzeCoins.append(item)  
> commandPeasant(friends[0], goldCoins)  
> commandPeasant(friends[1], silverCoins)  
> commandPeasant(friends[2], bronzeCoins)

I’m struggling with this level too, but can you tell me if what (if any) errors pop up.

It’s not about the original person’s code. It’s about @Reflective_Key’s code.

Could someone please help me? I can’t get the peasant to move to the coins.  
Here is part my code:

> function commandPeasant(peasant, coins) {  
> // Command the peasant to the nearest of their array  
> hero.command(peasant, “move”, coins.pos);

</div>

if item.value == 3:  
goldCoins.append(item)  
if item.value == 2:  
silverCoins.append(item)  
if item.value == 1:  
The above construction may work by pure luck, but generally is wrong. Do it the right way

```python
if item.value == 3:
    goldCoins.append(item)
elif item.value == 2:
    silverCoins.append(item)
elif item.value == 1:
    bronzeCoins.append(item)

```

this I can see from the broken format

</div>

same code in javascript:

```python
        if(item.value == 3) goldCoins.push(item);
        else if(item.value == 2) silverCoins.push(item);
        else if(item.value == 1) bronzeCoins.push(item);

```

in your code read carefully the hint:  
// Command the peasant to the **nearest of their array**

```python
function commandPeasant(peasant, coins) {
// You must get here a single coin from coins and tell the peasant to move there
// coins.pos is an array of points , not a single coin.pos 
hero.command(peasant, “move”, coins.pos); // wrong
}

```

</div>

So how would I command the peasant to the nearest of their array? Do I do something like this?

> function commandPeasant(peasant, coins) {  
> // Command the peasant to the nearest of their array  
> var coin = coins[0];  
> hero.command(peasant, “move”, coin.pos);  
> }

Sorry to bother you, but is this how I should be doing this?

> hero.command(peasant, “move”, peasant.findNearest(peasant.findItems));

</div>

peasant has no peasant.findItems method. / and if he has it will be peasant.findItems()/  
Your function is commandPeasant(peasant, coins), where you have the array **coins** as parameter.  
So it will be:

```python
function commandPeasant(peasant, coins) {
    var coin = peasant.findNearest(coins);
    hero.command(peasant, “move”, coin.pos); 
}

```

I did what you said, but now it says: "TypeError: Cannot read property ‘pos’ of null "

</div>

somewhere you must have

```python
var coins = hero.findItems()

```

to pass coins to commandPeasant(peasant, coins). A check

```python
if (coin && peasant ) hero.command(peasant, “move”, coin.pos);

```

will get rid of the error "Cannot read property ‘pos’ of null ", but I think you have a logical error.
