Make sure you add the code after the sentence.

<?php
$file = include('flavor.php');
echo "Randy's favorite flavor of ice cream is $file.";
$flavor = get_flavor();
?>

You call a function and load its return value into a variable like this:

$number = count($books);

This code calls the count function (passing in one argument), and it loads the return value into a variable called number.

Does that help?
