code challenge is wrong

#this should be the correct way to order the queries:

sorted_challenges = Challenge.select().order_by(Challenge.steps.desc())

#yet the code challenge only gets passed with this:

sorted_challenges = Challenge.select().order_by(Challenge.steps).desc()
queries.py 
from models import Challenge

all_challenges = Challenge.select()

Challenge.create(language="Ruby", name="Booleans")

sorted_challenges = Challenge.select().order_by(Challenge.steps.desc())

The .desc() part is not needed:

from models import Challenge

all_challenges = Challenge.select()

Challenge.create(language="Ruby", name="Booleans")

sorted_challenges = Challenge.select().order_by(Challenge.steps)
