Courses Plus Student 3,735 PointsNot sure what I’m doing, I’m finding this quiz very unrelated to the previous video, I’m missing something very basic.
//the code from the last video is as follows: $results = $db->query("SELECT title, category FROM Media"); var_dump( $results->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC) );
//however, as I understand the instructions, they mention that this has already been declared.
//thus, I am unclear as to how to write what is next. an example would be appreciated.
<?php
include "helper.php";
foreach($results as $level)
$email->send_offer($fullname,$email,$member_id);
/*
* helper.php contains
* $results->query("SELECT member_id, email, fullname, level FROM members");
*/

It may seem unrelated, but the quiz is directly focused on the use of the PDO fetchAll method which was explained and then we were shown how to dump the results of to see them visually. Now, instead of that, the quiz wants us to iterate through the results like we would if we had a static associative array which has been covered in the below two courses.
In the case of this challenge, we need to take those learnings and iterate through the results returned and pass the data for each member to the send_offer function by selecting the key/value pairs using the key names described by the task.
foreach ($results->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC) as $result) {
send_offer($result['member_id'], $result['email'], $result['fullname'], $result['level']);
}
Happy coding!
