operators2.swift 
// Enter your code below

var initialScore = 8
initialScore = initialScore + 1
let totalScore = ++initialScore
let isWinner = totalScore != 10

initialScore = initialScore + 1

Remove this line. You only need to increment initialScore once according to the problem.

Jared de Guzman Hey, just a quick tip, next time if you submit an answer, put it in the answers box and not in the comments box. That way the person who asked the question will get a notification he has an answer instead of a notification he has a comment!

Hey Justus,

The only thing wrong with your code is this line:

initialScore = initialScore + 1

This is the initial score so you shouldn't modify it. If you delete that line your code should work.

Hope this helped!
