1,474 PointsBug in echo flavor?
According to my understand, echo "$flavor"; should display the value of $flavor. The only way I can get this to work is echo $flavor; Shouldn't both be correct as they can both display the value of $flavor?
<?php
$flavor = 'Chocolate';
echo "<p>Your favorite flavor of ice cream is ";
echo "$flavor";
echo ".</p>";
echo "<p>Hal's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!</p>";
?>

Treehouse TeacherStuart McDonald, you are correct either way should work and I have updated the code challenge :)
Henrik Christensen
Python Web Development Techdegree Student 38,322 PointsYou should get chocolate when you echo "$flavor"; since it's in double-quotes but there is no point doing it like that in this challenge.
Instead just do it like this:
<?php
echo $flavor;
