Hey Justus,

The challenge is wanting you to assign and increment the value all in one line. For this task, you will need to increment the amount before assigning it to the constant, as the task wants both to be the same amount.

Below is the code the challenge is looking for, however, keep in mind that the ++ operator is deprecated in Swift 3.

var initialScore = 8
let totalScore = ++initialScore

Keep Coding! :dizzy:
