Excellent! Now I need you to add a new variable named total. Then assign the sum of current_count and upcoming_releases

It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing.

delete.py
current_count = 14
planned = 5
upcoming_releases = 2
del planned
total.=14+2

You get that message any time you introduce a syntax error, which causes the re-validation to fail.

In this case, the issue is due to a period in between "total" and the "=" symbol.
