4,400 PointsManipulating numbers
I'm stuck on php track task:
Create a New Float Variable named $floatOne with a value of 1.5. Without changing the value of $integerOne or $floatOne, multiply $integerOne by $floatOne and display the results.
If i type the code below, it says something like: "are you sure you multiplied correctly?".
<?php
//Place your code below this comment $integerOne = 1; $integerTwo = 2;
$integerOne += 5; $integerTwo -= 1;
$floatOne = 1.5; var_dump($integerOne * $floatOne);
?>
If i delete "$integerOne += 5; $integerTwo -= 1;" part, task 2 doesn't pass (It is a 3 task challenge).
Any help would be appreciated.
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
var_dump($integerOne += 5);
var_dump($integerTwo -= 1);
$floatOne = 1.5;
var_dump($integerOne * $floatOne);
?>

I just completed this one like this:
<?php
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
$integerOne += 5;
$integerTwo -= 1;
$floatOne = 1.5;
echo $integerOne * $floatOne;
Hope that helps,
Thanks,
Ben

4,400 PointsThanks guys, it helped. Just needed to use echo instead of var_dump.

23,838 PointsYou've got the right idea. Is there any reason you are using var_dump instead of echo?
