I don't pass the test.

I don't pass the test. I don't understand, somebody help me please?

Challenge task 4 of 4 Change the value in the flavor variable to cookie dough. Preview the code and make sure the message appears.

<?php
$flavor ="Chocolate";
echo "<p>Your favorite flavor of ice cream is ";
echo $flavor;
echo ".</p>";
if ($flavor =="vanila"){
echo "<p>Randy's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!</p>";
}
if ($flavor =="Chocolate"){
echo "cookie dough";
}
?>

            ```

For ease of readability...

<?php

$flavor ="Chocolate";
echo "Your favorite flavor of ice cream is ";
echo $flavor;
echo ".";
if ( $flavor =="vanilla" ) {
    echo "Randy's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!";
}

if ( $flavor =="Chocolate" ) {
    echo "cookie dough";
}

?>

If you want to know how I did that, check out the Markdown cheatsheet.

Hi, Kitisak Huaynuy. You added another if statement. You only need to change the value of the variable.

$flavor = "cookie dough";

Also, task 3 has you add an if statement to check whether $flavor is equal to "cookie dough"` and you have "vanilla"

Basically, you want to display the second sentence ("Randy's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!") only if your favorite flavor is cookie dough. Remember, $flavor is your favorite flavor.

So, if your favorite $flavor is equal to "cookie dough", then it should echo out that Randy's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!.
