make sure you use the correct variable names

Hi so i'm asked to check if the variable current_score is greater than the variable high_score

I assigned integers to each variable

current_score = 7 high_score = 3

current_score > high_score

and i get the error "make sure you use the correct variable names"

current_score = 7

high_score = 3

current_score > high_score

Hi Andrew!

Your code is actually right, you just added a couple of steps that weren't necessary.

This is passing code:

current_score > high_score

No need for the variable declarations.
