echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li>Alena Holligan : alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Dave McFarland : dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Treasure Porth : treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Andrew Chalkley : andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";

Hi Geet,

I can't be sure what it is exactly you're struggling with but I think what the challenge is asking is that you replace the hard coded values in the echo statements with references to the values in the provided $contacts array.

You'll need to provide the name of the array and a reference to the keys and the values as this is an associative array.

e.g. $contacts["value_as_a_string"];
