Score method excercise

it says that score didnt increase correctly...Excepts [0,1] got [0,0] ... I really dont understand this excercise

class Game: def init(self): self.current_score = [0, 0]

def score(self, player):
    self.player = 1
    if True:
        return self.current_score[0] + 1
game.py 
class Game:
    def __init__(self):
        self.current_score = [0, 0]

    def score(self, player):
        self.player = 1
        if True:
            return self.current_score[0] + 1

This code will work. Inside of Game.score you need to decrement player. Player will be either 1 or 2, but you need it to be the index position of either 0 or 1. After that you can select the score from Game.currrent_score with your player index and increment it by one.

class Game:
    def __init__(self):
        self.current_score = [0, 0]

    def score(self, player):
        player -= 1
        self.current_score[player] += 1
