1,696 Pointsstuck on second task of code challenge cover manipulating variables.
The second task asks you to add 5 to $integerOne and subtract 1 from $integerTwo. I have done that using var_dump. I checked the code in workspaces to ensure it is returning a value. However, the challenge says that I haven't changed the variable. Any ideas on what the problem is?
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
?>

3,659 PointsTreehouse wants you to solve this problem in a very straightforward way, even if there are several solutions to this problem.
<?php
//Place your code below this comment $integerOne = 1; $integerTwo = 2;
$integerOne += 5; $integerTwo -= 1;
$floatOne = 1.5;
echo $integerOne * $floatOne;
?>
I do not have time to explain.

1,696 PointsThank you for your help. It was really bugging me that the var_dump wasn't working. I guess there was an easier way to solve the problem than I was using.
