I'm doing a refresher on this course and I am stuck once again.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
<?php
function mimic_array_sum($array){
$sum = 0;
foreach ($array as $element){
$sum = $sum + $element;
}
return $sum;
};
$sum = mimic_array_sum($palindromic_primes);
echo $sum;
$palindromic_primes = array(11, 757, 16361);
?>

You just need to move your $sum variable and the echo statement below the $palindromic_primes array, and you will be good to go!
<?php
// all you need to do is move your $sum variable and its echo statement below the $palindromic_primes array, like so!
function mimic_array_sum($array){
$sum = 0;
foreach ($array as $element){
$sum = $sum + $element;
}
return $sum;
};
$palindromic_primes = array(11, 757, 16361);
$sum = mimic_array_sum($palindromic_primes);
echo $sum;
Everything else with your code is fine :)

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 32,425 PointsAh, that's it. Thanks Erik! Even I got through it the first time (with help), but this time my brain turned into scrambled eggs. Next time will be better:-)
