Float function?

Task 1 is no longer passing when adding float(). Any advice or which video to consult for help would be appreciated.

trial.py
age = 29
year = 1988
def add(age, year):
    float(add)
    return (age + year)

1 Answer

I believe you meant float(age) rather than float(add)

age = 29
year = 1988
def add(age, year):
    float(age)
    return (age + year)
