I think i found an error.

It says to "Declare an array of type float named math_constants. The array should be big enough to hold 2 numbers." So I tried to do "float math_constants[1]; Wouldn't that be right, How I did it? (It said i had to use 2, not 1).

I think the creation of the array stipulates its size. Accessing the array then takes on the "count from zero" notation.

So you create an array of two elements with a [2] but access the second element with [1].

I think!

I see what you're saying, I think I must've misread the question.
