After passing the first step, I added the second line as shown below and it fails stating that step one is now not passing.
states = [
'ACTIVE',
['red', 'green', 'blue'],
'CANCELLED',
'FINISHED',
5,
]
states.remove(5)
states.remove('red')

states = [
'ACTIVE',
['red', 'green', 'blue'],
'CANCELLED',
'FINISHED',
5,
]
states.remove(5)
states.remove(['red', 'green', 'blue'])
Hope this helps!

2,074 PointsI was wrong, the second action is not to remove the item 'red', but to remove the second item in the list. In this case, it is asking to remove 'red', 'green', 'blue'. For whatever reason my code displayed above was erroring out with "task 1 is no longer correct".
