The first sentence asks to include the flavor.php file.

include "flavor.php";

The second one points that the function get_flavor is in the flavor.php file, as the file is already included in our current file we just call the function to our output.php file and assign the value to the variable $flavor.

include "flavor.php";
$flavor = get_flavor();

And finally we just display the value of the variable $flavor in our echo statement.

include "flavor.php";
$flavor = get_flavor();
echo "Hal's favorite flavor of ice cream is " . $flavor . ".";
