so i put “attack” there and the error is here

    enemy = archer.findNearestEnemy()

saying that archer has no method findNearestEnemy

63

Try this instead.

enemy = archer.findNearest(hero.findEnemies())

error saying archer has no method findNearest

65

here is code

# Ogres are trying to take out your reindeer!
# Keep your archers back while summoning soldiers to attack.

def pickUpCoin():
    # Collect coins.
    if coin:
        coin = hero.findItems()
        hero.moveXY(coin.pos.x, coin.pos.y)
    pass

def summonTroops():
    # Summon soldiers if you have the gold.
    if hero.gold < hero.costOf("soldier"):
        hero.summon("soldier")
    pass
    
# This function has an argument named soldier.
# Arguments are like variables.
# The value of an argument is determined when the function is called.
def commandSoldier(soldier):
    # Soldiers should attack enemies.
    enemy = soldier.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy:
        hero.command(soldier, "attack", target)
    pass

# Write a commandArcher function to tell your archers what to do!
# It should take one argument that will represent the archer passed to the function when it's called.
# Archers should only attack enemies who are closer than 25 meters, otherwise, stay still.
def commandarcher(archer):
    enemy = archer.findNearest(hero.findEnemies())
    if enemy:
        hero.command(archer, "attack", enemy)
    else:
        hero.command(archer, "move", archer.pos)
while True:
    pickUpCoin()
    summonTroops()
    friends = hero.findFriends()
    for friend in friends:
        if friend.type == "soldier":
            # This friend will be assigned to the variable soldier in commandSoldier
            commandSoldier(friend)
        elif friend.type == "archer":
            # Be sure to command your archers.
            commandarcher(friends)
            pass

Shouldn’t you first find the coin and then check if it exists?
