Python Using Databases in Python Meet Peewee First Queries

Am I suppose to make an Instance or something else? What is it asking me to do here?

I'm still learning on how to use classes, and I thought I would just add an instance(?). Am I right to think that? Or do I need to do something else? Just looking for hints!

queries.py
from models import Challenge

all_challenges = Challenge.select()

all_challenges.Challenge(language="Ruby", name="Boolean")

You're pretty close on the syntax, but we have to create a new challenge and save it to the database. The way I show below isn't the only way to do it.

Good luck with your Python journey!

from models import Challenge

# this has all Challenges from the database
all_challenges = Challenge.select()

# create a new single Challenge instance and SAVE it.
new_challenge = Challenge(language="Ruby", name="Booleans")
new_challenge.save()

Thank you for the help!
