Great job :thumbsup: There are some weird things going on though:

  • You shouldn't say the contents of the array in the (), instead, just say the name of the array (in this case, it is $names)
  • Put the as $names part into the ().
  • Name second $names (the one after the as) name.

With all of that, you should end up like this (yeah you can just copy and paste this stuff):

<?php

$names = array('Mike', 'Chris', 'Jane', 'Bob');

foreach ($names as $name) {
     echo $name;
}

?>

Hope that helps! :dizzy:
