Separating Concerns

This code creates an array of ice cream flavors and then displays them in an index.php file. However, we now also need the array of ice cream flavors in another file. Let's move the flavors array into a model file. First, in flavors.php, create a new function called get_all_flavors().

Tried everything, cannot get this to work. Anyone know the correct code for it?

This is just asking for you to create a new, empty function in flavors.php. Remember the syntax of creating a new function is this:

function function_name (argument, if necessary) {code to be executed};

so, if I wanted to make a new, empty function named HelloWorld:

function HelloWorld(){};

Thank you. I was putting an = sign after function that did not need to be there.
