Replace the hard coded values in the output with the name and email values from the contacts array. I m stuck on this.

I don't know how to call the array to replace the name and email adress.

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

$list = array($contacts);
echo $list;

Your first part works appending the array with the key => value pairs for each person after that you just need to edit the list below removing the names that were typed there 'Alena Holligan' with a reference to the array that you made.

echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li>{$contacts[0]['name']} : {$contacts[0]['email']}</li>\n";
echo "<li>{$contacts[1]['name']} : {$contacts[1]['email']}</li>\n";
echo "<li>{$contacts[2]['name']} : {$contacts[2]['email']}</li>\n";
echo "<li>{$contacts[3]['name']} : {$contacts[3]['email']}</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";
