Hi, the question is confusing - i know how to make arrays but i dont know what the quiz specifically wants me to do 1st

Made internal array for each one but still not correct

index.php
<?php
//edit this array
$alena = array('name'=>'Alena Holligan', 'email'=>'alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com');
$dave = array('name'=>'Dave McFarland', 'email'=>'dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com');
$treasure = array('name'=>'Treasure Porth', 'email'=>'treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com');
$andrew = array('name'=>'Andrew Chalkley', 'email'=>'andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com');
$contacts = array($alena, $dave, $treasure, $andrew);


echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li>Alena Holligan : alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Dave McFarland : dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Treasure Porth : treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Andrew Chalkley : andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";

Hi, Roxanne

Yes the question is worded in a way that is a bit confusing. It took me a few attempts to get it working properly. I had the correct arrays but what I did was I gave the question more information than what it was asking for in task 1.

Below is a sample of one of my arrays, notice that you only need to add one set of information at this time. Hope this helps.

$contacts[] = [ 'name' => 'Alena Holligan', ];
