How are these variable names incorrect?

I keep getting the result "Make sure you use the correct variable names!"

I've retyped them several times, and I've copied and pasted the names directly from the question but the result hasn't changed. I can't figure out how the names are incorrect.

Thanks!!

current_score = 1
high_score = 2
"current_score" > "high_score"

Nevermind, I figured it out.

Why can't the returned error message be relevant to what you're doing wrong?

Renee Rhodes I've just tested your answer to the challenge and the error says: Bummer! Make sure you use the correct variable names!. You were using strings, so, the error is relevant to what you're actually doing wrong. :) Happy coding (If your error message is different let me know).
