Am I missing something with my foreach?

Question: Inside of your foreach loop echo each of the names to the screen.

My code:

<?php 
$names = array('Mike', 'Chris', 'Jane', 'Bob');
foreach($name as $names) {
   echo $name;
}

It's saying: I do not see any output yet, remember to use echo

Am I forgetting to do something? Thanks!

Yeah you flipped the variables in the foreach condition. It should be:

foreach( $names as $name){
  echo $name;
}

not:

foreach( $name as $names){
  echo $name;
}

Right now you are ask php to iterate over a variable, $name, that doesn't exist. Hope this helps.
