- you won't use the term "timedelta" — the result of the subtraction is a timedelta.
- the name of the method is "total_seconds" (with an underscore)
- the instructions say to "subtract the first [argument] from the second"
- the function doesn't need to print anything

Python Development Techdegree Graduate 12,179 PointsThank you! I was able to figure it out once I stepped away and then reread. I noticed the number too was close but negative. I appreciate the support.
