Code Challenge User Defined Functions

Hi All, can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong...http://teamtreehouse.com/library/introducing-userdefined-functions

<?php 

 function mimic_array_sum($array) {
                  $sum = 0;
             foreach($array as $element) {
                         $sum = $sum + $element;
                   } 
                   return $sum;

$palindromic_primes = array(11, 757, 16361);

$sum = mimic_array_sum($palindromic_primes);
echo $sum;

?>

Your function code should be surrounded in curly brackets, an opening curly bracket at the beginning and a closing one at the end:

function mimic_array_sum($array) {

    ...

}

It looks like your code is missing the closing one.

Does that help?
