psutil.virtual_memory Not Callable

I'm making a function in python that returns memory usage percentage, and I'm using psutil.

When I tried to run print(psutil.virtual_memory().percent()) I got an error that int object is not callable.

Currently, I'm doing this:

mem = psutil.virtual_memory()
mem = mem.percent()
print("RAM: " + str(mem) + "%")

I'm expecting it to return a percentage instead of an error.

According to [ReadTheDocs.psutil]: psutil.virtual_memory() (emphasis is mine):

Return statistics about system memory usage as a named tuple including the following fields, expressed in bytes.

So, you must not call mem.percent().

Example:

>>> import psutil
>>>
>>> mem = psutil.virtual_memory()
>>> mem
svmem(total=34190491648, available=14239588352, percent=58.4, used=19950903296, free=14239588352)
>>>
>>> mem.percent
58.4
