Python Object-Oriented Python (retired) Inheritance Score Method

working on index

Hi everyone, I'm trying to solve this Code Challenge that goes like this:

Add a score method to Game that takes a player argument. The player argument will be either 1 or 2. Increase that player's value in self.current_score by 1. You'll need to adjust the index (i.e. player = 1 means self.current_score[0] needs to increase).

However, I'm getting this error, which seems to confuse me.

Bummer! Score didn't increase correctly. Expected [0, 1], got [1, 1].

Can somebody please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help. --Conrad

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

  def score(self,player):
    self.player = player

    PLAYER_NUM = [0,1]

    for player in PLAYER_NUM:
       self.current_score[player] +=1
    return self.current_score

I tried it, but didn't work. I also changed the score method definition, and here's the new code:

===========================

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

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

============================ But I'm gettting this new error:

Bummer! Did you adjust the player number?
