Hello, I am having some issues with this quizz. I tried to assign the comparaison between $a and "5" to the variable $isIdentical. But it doesn't work. Can anyone help me? Thank you!
<?php
$a = 5;
//Place your code below this comment
$isBoolean = true;
$isIdentical = var_dump($a === "5");
echo $isIdentical;
?>

9,260 Pointsyou are almost there:
<?php
$a = 5;
//Place your code below this comment
$isBoolean = true;
$isIdentical = $a === "5";
to test this all you need to do is:
var_dump($isIdentical);

9,260 Pointsthe variable you want to output needs to go inside of the var_dump($variable);
