current_count = 14
del planned = 5 #you are trying to assign the "planned" variable to the number 5 and trying to delete it at the same time
upcoming_releases = 2
total = current_count + upcoming_releases
#CORRECT SOLUTION
current_count = 14
planned = 5 #planned variable exists
upcoming_releases = 2
del planned #we delete that planned variable
total = current_count + upcoming_releases
What you did was the first block of code above. The correct code is the one below it. You are not supposed to modify the given variables. Take a look at the comments I put in the above code. Tell me if you understand and if it works now

del planned
Challenge 2: add up the two things that the instructions said to add and assign to variable called "total"
total = current_count + upcoming_releases
