Courses Plus Student 217 Pointsin the 2nd task of a coding challenge what could cause the first task to no longer be passing?
I cannot figure out why it keeps telling me first task , which was to 'del planned' is no longer passing
current_count = 14
planned = 5
upcoming_releases = 2
total = (current_count + upcoming_release)
del planned

Treehouse TeacherHi Charles! The most likely reason you will see a Task <insert number here> is no longer passing! message is because you've introduced a syntax error into your code. That is the case here. Check carefully the line where you assign a value to the variable total. The variable upcoming_release is not defined, but upcoming_releases is.
Also, note that the parentheses don't really hurt anything here, but they aren't needed and your code might be considered more readable without them.
Hope this helps!
