Code Challenge advice

Check if each student has a GPA of 4.0. If the student has a GPA of 4.0, use the students name variable to display "NAME made the Honor Role". If not, use the variable to display "NAME has a GPA of GPA".

$studentOneName = 'Dave'; $studentOneGPA = 3.8;

$studentTwoName = 'Treasure'; $studentTwoGPA = 4.0;

index.php
<?php
$studentOneName = 'Dave';
$studentOneGPA = 3.8;

$studentTwoName = 'Treasure';
$studentTwoGPA = 4.0;

You'll be using conditions to display the results you need. Think about what the question is asking. "if this is true, do this"

<?php  

if ( condition )  {
 do action
} else {

}
 ?>

You'll need to give an if block a condiition that matches the value in the variables and then echo some text. Make sure the string matches exactly what's being asked for. Good luck. :)
