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

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

//Place your code below this comment

if ($studentOneGPA == 4.0) { echo $studentOneName . " made the Honor Role" . "\n"; } else { echo $studentOneName . " has a GPA of " . $studentOneGPA . "\n"; }

if ($studentTwoGPA == 4.0) { echo $studentTwoName . " made the Honor Role" . "\n"; } else { echo $studentTwoName . " has a GPA of " . $studentTwoGPA . "\n"; }
