In PHP, the counting starts at 0, not one :)

the correct answer is echo $colors[1];

Hope this helps!

<?php

$integer_one = 1;
$integer_two = 2;

$golden = 1.618;

$bool = true;
$colors = array ( 'red', 'blue', 'green');
print_r($colors);
echo $colors[1];
?>

this is my code. But I have taken error message Bummer! It looks like you are echoing the wrong thing, remember that arrays are 0 based.

I went through and tested your code, and if you remove the print_r($colors), it will work.

Edit: The challenge does not want you to print out the colors array, that is why it is not used.

thank you.
