I think it is because you are having an php error 'cause you are using the array_replace function wrong, it need to have at least 2 arrays the base one, in this case it would be the $colors array and the replace array who would be something like array( 1 => "magenta", 3=>"Cyan" ) and also, you arent asigning the value of the function to anything, so you code should look like this

<?php
$colors = array( "Red", "Green", "Blue");

array_unshift( $colors, "Yellow" );
array_push( $colors, "Black" );
$colors = array_replace( $colors, array( 1=>"Magenta",  3=>"Cyan" ) );

but I think there is also another option where you can change the values directly providing the array index like this

<?php

$colors = array("Red","Green","Blue");

//add modifications below this line
array_unshift( $colors, "Yellow" );
array_push( $colors, "Black" );
$colors[1] = "Magenta";
$colors[3] = "Cyan";

and this would help you pass this step, in the last one you just need to unset a value hope it helps!
