Help with task 2 on Numstring code challenge

Im not sure what is wrong with my imul function, it would be great if I could get some pointers, thank you

numstring.py
class NumString:
    def __init__(self, value):
        self.value = str(value)

    def __str__(self):
         return self.value

    def __int__(self):
        return int(self.value)

    def __float__(self):
        return float(self.value)

    def __add__(self, other):
        if '.' in self.value:
            return float(self) + other
        return int(self) + other

    def __radd__(self, other):
        return self + other

    def __iadd__(self, other):
        self.value = self + other
        return self.value

    def __mul__(self, other):
        if '.' in self.value:
            return float(self) * other
        return int(self) * other

    def __rmul__(self, other):
        return self * other

     def __imul__(self, other):
        self.value = self * other
        return self.value

Perhaps you solved this already, there is an extra space before the def __imul__ statement. Correcting the indentation will allow the code to pass the challenge.
