Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 4,263 PointsI don't understand what I have to do here... :'(
I cannot understand what is the challenge here... The Challenge is :
In the code below, we have a simple array of contact names. We want to use the $contacts array to fill in the hardcoded list of names and email addresses. To hold the email as well as the name for each contact, we need a multidimensional array, meaning each person in the contact list will have their own array. The first step is to make each person their own single item ASSOCIATIVE array, using 'name' as the key for these internal arrays.
Here is my code:
<?php
//edit this array
$contacts[0] = [
'name' => 'Alena Holligan',
'email' => 'alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com',
];
$contacts[1] = [
'name' => 'Dave McFarland',
'email' => 'dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com',
];
$contacts[2] = [
'name' => 'Treasure Porth',
'email' => 'treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com',
];
$contacts[3] = [
'name' => 'Andrew Chalkley',
'email' => 'andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com',
];
var_dump($contacts);
echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li>" . $contacts[0]['name'] . " " . $contacts[0]['email'] ."</li>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[1]['name'] . " " . $contacts[1]['email'] ."</li>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[2]['name'] . " " . $contacts[2]['email'] ."</li>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[3]['name'] . " " . $contacts[3]['email'] ."</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";

First of all, we don't have to var_dump()
anything.
For the output, where you have an empty space, there needs to be a space then a colon(:
) then another space
i.e.
$contacts[0]['name'] . " : " . $contacts[0]['email']
Once you fix those issues it should pass.
