Task Completed without imputing the right answer

That should work, so I suspect you are missing something. What's the error? If you don't get a helpful error message, then you probably have some invalid PHP code (like a missing semicolon at the end of a line).

Here's the code I have that passes the task 3:

<?php

    require_once("class.palprimechecker.php");
    $checker = new PalprimeChecker();

    echo "The number ## ";
    echo "(is|is not)";
    echo " a palprime.";

?>

You have this line of code:

$checker-> "number" = 17;

Because number is the name of a property, you don't actually put it in quotation marks. (A property is like a variable that way; it's a variable inside of an object.) That line should look like this:

$checker->number = 17;

Does that help?

That's interesting. I believe in a few of the very first challenges of Website Basics (create an h1, for example), I didn't need to use the < /h1 > tag to close the h1 tag. Also, in another challenge (can't remember which), a challenge could be completed without inserting the " ; " symbol in the .css file.

Hey Justin,

Thanks for finding this. I was checking to make sure the hash signs (#) were removed, but I wasn't checking that they were replaced with the number! I have added the additional check and re-deployed the code challenge. (You had to add it in eventually before passing the whole code challenge, but it now checks at the correct step. :~)

Thanks again!

Hey Randy,

Thanks for the fix, unfortunately i am now having an issue with an earlier task that i was completing yesterday before the issue you fixed.

i am now on task 3/7

for this task you need to add a variable named $checker and assign that variable an object called new palprimechecker

seems simple enough from what i recall, all i needed to do was the following, the task prior to this i added the require_once function

then :

$checker = new palprimechecker();

the task is not passing, and i went to check back to my tutorial and previous work to see that this is what i imputed before with success, now to just see it not pass.

any suggestions ? am i just being careless and missing something ? i am pretty sure this passed for me yesterday although im open to any solution.

thanks

Hey Randy! i am now on task 4/7

that´s my code:

<?php

require_once ("class.palprimechecker.php"); $checker = new PalprimeChecker(); $checker-> "number" = 17;

echo "The number " . 17; echo "(is|is not)"; echo " a palprime.";

?> not work... :( help me

THIS GOT ME PAST THAT STEP

$checker -> number = 17;

echo "The number 17"; echo "(is|is not)"; echo " a palprime.";

but the first "echo" isn't logical because the number 17 is a string that I wrote... not the "property number" that is computer through the PalprimeChecker() object.
