Courses Plus Student 2,930 PointsThis shouldn't be hard...but I cant make figure this code challenge out
I am doing the first code challenge for python and all it wants me to do is make a variable called "total" and make it add current_count and upcoming_releases. I have tried so many different ways to make this work but it never does. Can someone tell me how you are supposed to do it...the hint is totally useless. I know this is going to be obvious...I just want to know what the code should look like so I can move on...any help is appreciated =D
current_count = 14
planned = 5
upcoming_releases = 2
del planned
t = "total"
total = 'current_count + upcoming_releases'

del planned
total = current_count + upcoming_releases
Happy coding!
