I am finding it really hard to understand what exactly the code challenge is asking of me:
I am on task 6 and I am clueless. It tells me the fourth echo statement is inside the foreach loop however if you look at my code:
<?php
$letters = array("D", "G", "L"); echo "My favorite "; echo "We have " . count($letters) . " letters" ; foreach ($letters as $letter) { echo $letter; } echo ".";
?>
You will notice that the fourth echo isn't and if I attempt to insert it there it will say task 5 is no longer passing. What am I missing?

<?php
$letters = array("D", "G", "L");
echo "My favorite ";
echo count($letters);
echo " letters are these: ";
foreach($letters as $letter){
echo $letter;
}
echo ".";
?>

12,793 PointsUPDATE: I have changed my code to this so it displays perfectly:
<?php $letters = array("D", "G", "L"); echo "My favorite "; echo count($letters); echo " letters are these: \n"; foreach($letters as $letter) { echo $letter; } echo ""; echo "."; ?>
Now it wont pass and says "You seem to have too many letters. You should only be displaying one letter inside your foreach loop."
The whole sentence wont make sense if it shows one letter haha it says three!
