Yep, in syntax your answer is correct. However, it seems to be the order of the first array that is throwing the Bummer for the final task. I don't know why it only affects the last task.
The $colors array should be $colors = ['red', 'blue', 'green'];
I'm not sure why it didn't "Bummer" when that particular task was being checked. (Challenges are picky, strict, and sometimes just wonky. )
Also, you will need to uncomment the first echo
statement.
Fix those two things up and the code will pass all the Tasks.
Keep Coding!

6,191 PointsThe challenge did not say to comment out the echo $colors[1]; line. So put that back in and try again. If it still come up as being wrong, change the $colors line to $colors=['red','blue','green']; . That was the order that was requested. It should not be a factor, but I have seen stranger things with these challenges. Hope this helps!
