Hey guys, I have looked at other discussions on this problem and have exhausted every possible solution. The challenge is: "Declare a float array named real_numbers that will hold 5 float numbers." My answer to this was initially this;
float real_numbers[ ] = {1.1, 2.2, 3.3, 4.4, 5.5}
But then after seeing that was wrong, I tried this;
float real_numbers[5] = { }
Still, after putting this as my answer, I am still receiving the message, "Bummer! Remember when declaring arrays, the size of the array is placed in box brackets: name_of_array[2]."
Please tell me how or if i can fix this problem and whether I should just move on. Thank you in advance for your help!

All you need to do is declare the array, not assign it any value:
float real_numbers[5];
