In which task and step of the codelab can this issue be found?
Step 7
Step 13

Describe the problem
The first issue is a small typo. Step 5 tells you to copy over currentWordCount to the ViewModel. Step 7 uses _currentWordCount in the examples. We don't create a backing property for currentWordCount until step 11.

The second issue is small as well. It doesn't mention using viewModel.score and viewModel.currentWordCount in onViewCreated. It is not updated in the solution step as well (step 13).

Steps to reproduce?

  1. Go to...
  2. Click on...
  3. See error...

I see the same error/problem.... Do they want us to add a backing property to currentWordCount as it was done to currentScrambledWord

I believe so. They have a backing property for currentWordCount in Step 11
