I am having trouble with Challenge Task 1 of 2 which is Initialize a variable called address_book set to a new instance of the AddressBook class. I put in my code down below but I'm not sure what is wrong. Can someone show me the correct code to this challenge?
contact = Contact.new
contact.first_name = "My"
contact.last_name = "Name"
class AddressBook
def initialize
address_book
end
end

and make it equal a Addressbook.new
.
Much like the very first line they have you with the contact example.
