What did i wrong?

Create a function named create_challenge() that takes name, language, and steps arguments. Steps should be optional, so give it a default value of 1. Create a Challenge from the arguments. create_challenge should not return anything.

crud.py 
from models import Challenge

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

Bot answer: Bummer: create() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

The task asks you to create a challenge (just one), and it is assuming you understand the calling signature as shown in the previous video.

In particular, the ".challenge" method takes only keyword arguments.
