I dont think this is proper?

I dont think this is a proper question and tip?

Create a variable called a and set it to any whole number. Create another variable called b that is set to be a number with a decimal. Bummer! There was a problem with the code. Double check that a year variable was set and try again.

A year variable?

It worked for me, but the first time i tried, it didnt but what i mean is that :

It tell us to create a variable thats whole number variable name 'a' , and then create vairbale 'b' thats number with a decimal.

And then it wrote bummer. double check thath a "year variable was set and try again" a year variable?

Thats confusing : p
