PHP Build a Basic PHP Website (2018) Enhancing a Form Forms and User Input

I think there is a mistake in this quiz about building a PHP Form.

It says " Bummer! Parentheses are used when calling a function" but I selected "(Parentheses)" as the answer!

It is not the mistake. Parentheses are used when calling a function, but $_POST["name"] is a massive of variables and you can get value by index of massive with squre brackets.

There is no mistake. They just say to you that parentheses, that you are select, uses for functions, not for global massives.
