Create a function named search_challenges that takes two arguments, name and language. Return all Challenges where the n

I think I have done the right thing, but I still get it wrong.

crud.py 
from models import Challenge


def create_challenge(name, language, steps=1):
    Challenge.create(name=name,
                     language=language,
                     steps=steps)

def search_challenges(name,language):
    chal = Challenge.select()

    ans = chal.where((Challenge.name==name),(Challenge.language==language))

Hi Daniel,

In your Where clause you have Challenge.name == name, instead of Challenge.name.contains(name). The code challenge asks you to check if name contains name.

Like this: 

def search_challenges(name,language):
    chal = Challenge.select()

    ans = chal.where((Challenge.name.contains(name)),(Challenge.language==language))
    return ans

I hope that helps you

Jonas
