Excellent! Now I need you to add a new variable named total. Then assign the sum of current_count and upcoming_releases to total. I'd like you to use the variables, but if you need to use the numbers, that's OK.

delete.py
current_count = 14
planned = 5
upcoming_releases = 2
del planned
total. = current_count 
total. = upcoming_releases
