Hi Richard,

Here is the answer for tasks 1 and 2. Create a constant totalScore and assign it to the incremented score. The constant, isWinner is checking if the score is not 10. If the score is anything else but 10, you win.

// Enter your code below

var initialScore = 8
let totalScore = ++initialScore
let isWinner = totalScore != 10

Hope this helps, Dave
