3,671 PointsLooks like you've got an extra .";
after the semi-colon on your getInfo()
function. Also, you've got the definition for it inside of the definition of your constructor function. It needs to be a separate definition inside the Trout
class.
Additionally, you don't use new
to call a class function, only when instantiating it. Instead, to call the getInfo()
function of your $brook_trout
object, you would call $brook_trout->getInfo();
