Courses Plus Student 16,968 PointsYou could also loop through the array and echo out colors, for example:
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$integer_one = 1;
$integer_two = 2;
$golden = 1.618;
$bool = true;
$colors = array("red", "blue", "green");
foreach($colors as $color) {
echo $color;
}
?>
This may be more advanced than what you are covering in PHP Basics at the moment, but I just wanted to present it as an option.

<?php
$colors = array('red', 'blue', 'green');
echo colors[0];
// This would then echo out the word "red".
?>
As Azadi mentioned in his post, indexed arrays in php always start at 0. So to access the first item of your array you would want to start at 0 and then if you wanted the second value then you use 1 etc. Hopefully this helped a little bit. :) If you have anymore questions don't hesitate to ask!

168 PointsHello,
Hopefully this will answer your question: echo $color[0] echo $color[1] echo $color[2] ... echo $color[n]
Where the number in the brackets is the entry in which you are wanting to echo. Remember that arrays in many languages, including PHP, start with the first element subscripted as 0. So if you have an array with 10 elements, you can index it using subscripting as above for [0] - [9].

25,286 PointsThe answer below are basically correct, but all depends on what do you really want your program to do. 1-The first one helps you to get the 'n' element in the colors array by $colors[0] for position 1. 2-The second one just print all the elements from $colors using the $color iterator. 3- The third one is just a repetition of the first one.
My question is that answer your question, but i guessing you want to do some conditionals with integer_one & integer_two if so comment bellow so I can explain better.
Have a good day.
