Keeps saying I'm echoing the wrong output when it's the right output? Idk help.
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$colors = array();
array_push($colors, "red", "green", "blue");
echo $colors[1] . "\n";
$favorite_colors = array(
"mike" => "green",
"jane" => "blue",
"chris" => "red"
);
echo $favorite_colors['mike'];
?>

Treehouse TeacherHi there! It's correct that it's the incorrect output, but the reason here is somewhat mystifying. I had to go back and look carefully at this challenge. It should have failed you at Step 2, but not because of any syntax error.
In your $colors array, you were to add the items (in order) as red, blue, green. But you reversed the blue and the green and pushed "red, green, blue". Your first echo statement is then to echo out the second element of that. Yours echoes out green, but it should echo out blue.
Changing this:
array_push($colors, "red", "green", "blue");
To this:
array_push($colors, "red", "blue", "green");
... causes your code to pass all steps!
Hope this helps!
