Thanks !!!!

Code is below:


# __author__ = 'stephaniequiles'

# write a class named Pet should include __name, __animal_type, __age

class Pet:
     # pet class should have an __init__ method that creates these attributes.
     def __init__(self, name, animal_type, age):
         self.__name = 'name'
         self.__animal_type = 'animal_type'
         self.__age = 'age'

     def set_name(self, name):
         self.__name = 'name'

Further to Alan's answer the above methods are wrong.  You're setting 
all the instance variables to strings instead of the actual variable 
names.  Get rid of the single quotes.
