[SOLVED] Hi! I think there is a bug in this quiz. 

$flavors = array();

$flavors[1] = "Cake Batter";

$flavors[2] = "Cookie Dough";

if (isset($_GET["id"])) {

    if (isset($flavors[$_GET["id"]])) {

        echo $flavors[$_GET["id"]];

    } else {

        echo "B";

    }

} else {

    echo "A";

}

I answered: A But, I was incorrect by the system

Hey Imon Dela Rosa,

It depends on what was set with the "flavor.php" page in the question area. I've done that question multiple ways just a few moments ago to see if there is a bug, and I can find none. I've seen it 4 different ways. One has the id not set at all; one has the id set to a number (9 for me) that is undefined on the array; one has it set to the id of 1; and one has it set to the id of 2. It's impossible to say which question you got based upon that 2nd part you copied. Again, each time I took the quiz and got the different question, I was able to find the correct answer.

I also edited your markdown so it would render correctly on the screen. You can check out the Markdown Cheatsheet for how to post code (which has a link just below every comment or answer input area).

Hi! Marcus, you were right. I overlooked the url with id. http://localhost/flavor.php?id=1 Means the answer is D. Cake Batter.

Thank you.
