Create Challenge

I am not sure what the "Challenge" in the instructions mean. It asks me to create a challenge from the arguments. Any assistance will be appreciated.

crud.py
from models import Challenge

def create_challenge(name, language, steps = 1):
    Challenge.create(name, language, steps)

you need to associate the parameters with something when you create, so name = 'Something', language = 'Something' etc :)

You are very close. The create method needs keyword arguments, not just positional arguments.

    Challenge.create(name=name, language=language, steps=steps)
