9,895 PointsHey guys is anyone able to help me with part 3 of the collection objects challenge?
My attempt at an answer is attached, but I think I am over thinking it.
<?php
// add code below this comment
class Subdivision {
public $houses = array();
public function filterHouseColor($color) {
$filteredColor = array();
foreach ($houses as $key => $value) {
$item = $value['i'];
if ($item === $color) {
$filteredColor[] = $item;
}
}
return $filteredColor;
}
}
class house {
public $roof_color;
public $wall_color;
}
$local_house1 = new house->roof_color("red");
$local_house1 = new house->wall_color("white");
$local_house2 = new house->roof_color("grey");
$local_house2 = new house->wall_color("blue");
$local_house3 = new house->roof_color("orange");
$local_house3 = new house->wall_color("brown");
$house_array = array_push($SubDiv_Ob = Subdivision->$houses, $local_house1, $local_house2, $local_house3);
$SubDiv_Obj = new Subdivision;
$Subdiv_Obj->filteredColor($red);
?>

9,895 PointsOK so I have updated it a bit but it still isn't happy. I am sure there are other problems with it but for some reason it is returning an error because it won't accept the declaration of an object as 'new House' because it has already been declared as the class name. Which needless to say makes no sense. Might it be better to make the house class static?
