Not sure what to do.

I have no idea what I need to do for this challenge. Any help is appreciated.

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):
    return Challenge.select().where(Challenge(name==name, language==language))

You mean like this?

def search_challenges(the_name, the_language):
    return Challenge.select().where(Challenge.contains(name=the_name, language=the_language))

I meant to put the double equal signs in there. It still didn't work

Like this:

Challenge.select().where(Challenge.name.contains(the_name), Challenge.language==the_language)

Return all Challenges where:

name field contains name argument

and

the language field is equal to the language argument.

Oh. Ok. Thank you very much. I was a little bit unsure on what to do.
