Question

Within the Client class, extend the constructor method from the parent to allow the company to be included with initialization. It is giving me the error "I do not see a third parameter for company"

User.php

<?php
//do not modify this file
class User {
    protected $name;
    protected $title;

    public function __construct($name = null, $title = null) {
        $this->name = $name;
        $this->title = $title;
    }

    public function __toString() {
        return $this->getSalutation();
    }

    public function getSalutation() {
        return $this->title . " " . $this->name;
    }

    public function getName() {
        return $this->name;
    }

    public function setName($name) {
        $this->name = $name;
    }

    public function getTitle() {
        return $this->title;
    }

    public function setTitle($title) {
        $this->title = $title;
    }
}

Developer.php

<?php
//do not modify this file
class Developer extends User 
{
  protected $skills;

  public function getSkills() {
      return $this->skills;
  }

  public function setSkills($array) {
      $this->skills = $array;
  }

  public function displayUserSkills() {
      return $this->getName() . ' has the following skills: ' . implode(", ", $this->skills);
  }
}

Client.php

<?php
//add code for Client class

class Client extends User {
  protected $company;

  public function getCompany() {
      return $this->company;
  }

  public function setCompany($array) {
      $this->company = $array;
  }

  public function construct ($name = null, $title = null, $company = null) { 
      parent::construct($name,$title); $this->setCompany($company);
  }

}

When you call the constructor you need to do it like this

parent::__construct($name,$title);

Once you add the underscores everything runs perfectly. Other examples of this behavior

__destruct(), __call(), __callStatic(), __get(), __set(), __isset(), __unset(), __sleep(), __wakeup(), __toString(), __invoke(), __set_state(), __clone()  __debugInfo()

Well knonw as Magic Methods.
