Question

<?php

require_once('model.php'); $numbers = get_numbers();

$count_less_than_one           = 0;
$count_between_one_and_thousand = 0;
$count_greater_than_thousand    = 0;

foreach ($numbers as $number) {

  if($number < 1){
    $count_less_than_one += 1;
  }
  if($number >=1  && $number<= 1000){
    $count_between_one_and_thousand += 1;
  }
  else{
    $count_greater_than_thousand += 1;
  }    

}

include('view.php');

?>

Cannot see anything wrong with this code.

Hi Andreas,

You want your second if to be an else if This way it's part of the starting if block.

Suppose the number is -5. The 1st if condition will be true and that count will be incremented. Then it's going to check against the second if and that will be false so it will execute the else and that count will be incremented even though the number was -5.

By making it an else if then it will skip that block and the else block.

cool thanks Jason was cracking my head as to why the code wasnt working but didnt think to put a elseif because most of the tie you can get away with not putting an elseif but two if statements and then an else. But it worked thanks
