3,731 PointsI need the error to be more specific.
it out puts what is supposed to but its still giving me wrong output message. Does it have to be in a certain order?
<?php
$studentOneName = 'Dave';
$studentOneGPA = 3.8;
$studentTwoName = 'Treasure';
$studentTwoGPA = 4.0;
//Place your code below this comment
if ($studentOneGPA == 4.0){
echo $studentOneName . "made the Honor Roll";
} else {
echo $studentOneName . "has GPA of" . $studentOneGPA;
};
if ($studentTwoGPA == 4.0){
echo $studentTwoName . "made the Honor Roll";
} else {
echo $studentTwoName . "has GPA of" . $studentTwoGPA;
}
//if ($studentTwoGPA == 4.0){
// echo $studentTwoName . "made the Honor Roll";
//} else ($studentTwoGPA != 4.0){
// $studentTwoName . "has GPA of" . $studentTwoGPA
//}
?>

Treehouse TeacherHi there! It's not quite outputting the exact thing it's expecting. Your logic and syntax are spot on, but there are some spacing problems and you're missing a word in two of your strings. Specifically, the indefinite article "a".
Right now, your code for "Dave" outputs this:
Davehas GPA of3.8
But it should output this:
// note the additional spacing after "Dave" and before "3.8"
// Also note the addition of the word "a"
Dave has a GPA of 3.8
Your code for "Treasure" outputs:
Treasuremade the Honor Roll
But it should output:
// note the additional spacing after the name
Treasure made the Honor Roll
Hope this helps!
