I am having a problem with the last question in php quiz integrating validation errors.

Hello Le Var Range .

You will need to add a space right after the word "is" in the echo statement.

Also, I would not put a return statement here. I would simply declare the $flavor variable like this: $flavor = get_flavor();

Be sure to put the variable declaration before actually its usage, so right above the echo statement line should do.

Kindly let me know if this works.

THANK YOU!! … what was wrong with my code is that I did not add a space at the end of the string … after the ( is ) in the echo statement. I remember slightly of the tutorial mentioning abt adding the space after the string. I don't understand why this is. It was a detrimental factor of me not solving the quiz question. I did declare the var after the echo statement and it still didn't work .. only until I added the space after the is .. did it work … Why is it so important in PHP to add a space after a string to concatenate?

I'm completely stumped by this. I've tried a range of methods for concatenation/adding variables to strings and none of it is working. I've also tried directly copying the above solution and that did not work either. I've also played with that solution in multiple ways. I've declared the variable above the statement as "" "0" get_flavor() and $flavor but it didn't help so I took it out. If someone could point out what I'm doing wrong I'd appreciate it.

<?php

echo "Randy's favorite flavor of ice cream is " . $flavor. ".";

include 'flavor.php';

$flavor = get_flavor();

return;

?>

Here is my code that passed. I think I see a space missing in your echo command too, between the end of $flavor and your next concatenation period.

<?php

include("flavor.php");
$flavor = get_flavor();
echo "Randy's favorite flavor of ice cream is " . $flavor . ".";

?>
