Thanks in advance. I think it is most likely a mistype.
<?php
$a = 5;
//Place your code below this comment
$isBoolean = true;
$isIdentical = ($isBoolean === "5");
?>

You're super close to getting this, but you're comparing the wrong variable. You're currently comparing the variable isBoolean
, but you want to compare the a
variable.
$isIdentical = ($isBoolean === "5");
should then become $isIdentical = ($a === "5")
.
Hope this helps!
