Within the Client class, extend the constructor method from the parent to allow the company to be included with initialization. I am confused on this challenge on exactly what I need to do. With my current code, it gives me the message I do not see a third parameter. The code is in Client.php
<?php
//do not modify this file
class User {
protected $name;
protected $title;
public function __construct($name = null, $title = null) {
$this->name = $name;
$this->title = $title;
}
public function __toString() {
return $this->getSalutation();
}
public function getSalutation() {
return $this->title . " " . $this->name;
}
public function getName() {
return $this->name;
}
public function setName($name) {
$this->name = $name;
}
public function getTitle() {
return $this->title;
}
public function setTitle($title) {
$this->title = $title;
}
}
<?php
//do not modify this file
class Developer extends User
{
protected $skills;
public function getSkills() {
return $this->skills;
}
public function setSkills($array) {
$this->skills = $array;
}
public function displayUserSkills() {
return $this->getName() . ' has the following skills: ' . implode(", ", $this->skills);
}
}
<?php
//add code for Client class
class Client extends User {
protected $company;
public function getCompany() {
return $this->company;
}
public function setCompany($array) {
$this->company = $array;
}
public function displayCompany() {
return $this->getCompany();
}
}

11,206 Pointsin the client class constructor ,try adding the $name,$title and $company parameters .that should at least deal with the 3rd parameter missing issue .i just tried this code and it worked.hope it does for you too
class Client extends User{
protected $company ;
public function __construct($name = null,$title = null, $company = null){ //uncomments code below after problem resolved for second part of challenge
//parent::__construct($name,$title);
//$this->company = $company ;
}
public function setCompany ($company){ $this->company = $company ; }
public function getCompany (){ return $this->company ; } } ?>
