Courses Plus Student 2,801 PointsWhat is this challenge trying to ask me to do?
The challenge task is: Add a score method to Game that takes a player (1 or 2) and increases that current_score member's score by 1.
Specifically, what kinds of inputs should I expect for this method? A re-wording of this question is: How will this method be called? For example, self.score(), or self.score(1) or self.score(2)?
What does the challenge refer to when it says "current_score member's score"?
What objects will be made with the class Game? (Is it Player 1 and Player 2?) If so, will each player object have their own current_score attribute?
This code challenge is probably simpler than it seems, since there are no comments with any further hints or explanations. I'm probably just missing something that's extremely obvious to most other people, or the general populace as a whole.
I have re-watched the previous video, and fiddled a lot with a text-editor, and the only two errors I've received were Bummer! Try again! and syntax error. Which feeds into why I think it's a very simple code challenge that probably doesn't need any explanation, but here I am, asking for one anyway.
Thank you for your time!

Treehouse Guest Teachercurrent_score is a list of two items with both items being 0. current_score[0] is Player 1, current_score[1] is Player 2. If we call score(1), Player 1's score should go up. Same for Player 2 if we call score(2).

Courses Plus Student 2,801 PointsOh wow, it's you! xD Mm... thank you; it's a lot clearer. I tried using the code I thought would work. And then I figured it out! Thank you, Kenneth Love!
