For some reason, the codes I have written seem not to work, am sure i'm missing something please kindly help.

I'm trying to compare two results to a gpa of 4 and echo out a result if the values of variables are equal to 4, I've tried several way with if, if else conditionals yet my answers aren't correct, please give me a heads up on how to proceed. Thank you

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

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

if ($studentOneGPA ==4.0){
 echo $studentOneName." "."made the Honor Roll";
}

else{
      echo $studentOneName." "."has a GPA OF".$studentOneGPA;
}

if ($studentTwoGPA ==4.0){
 echo $studentTwoName." "."made the Honor Roll";
}

else{
      echo $studentTwoName." "."has a GPA OF".$studentTwoGPA;
}

Hello!

The challenges are very case sensitive.

In your else statements the "OF" is capitalized where they shouldn't be and there should be a space between that "of" and the $studentGpa variables.

Hope that helps!
