Hey, can anyone help me with this task? I don`t understand what is wrong with this code because I get correct output...

fish.php 
<?php

class Fish
{
    public $common_name;
    public $flavor;
    public $record_weight;
    public function getInfo() {
      echo "A " . $this->common_name . " is an " . $this->flavor . " flavored fish. The world record weight is " . $this->record_weight . ".";
    }
}

$bass = new Fish();
$bass->common_name = "Largemouth Bass";
$bass->flavor = "Excellent";

Hi Tautvydas, I think you forgot to 'return' string in your getInfo() method.

return "A " . $this->common_name . " is an " . $this->flavor . " flavored fish. The world record weight is " . $this->record_weight . ".";
