Can someone please help me find my parse error in my code?

It says that there's a parse error on line 4 in recipecollection.php.

I've included a screenshot here: https://w.trhou.se/4zri5wsiyx

your recipecollection does start with a word new, shouldn't it be starting with class RecipeCollection, instead of new RecipeCollection

In recipecollection.php you are declaring 'new' instead of 'class'. Once you change that, the error goes away. Didn't fully look at the requirements but it does produce the var_dump. Assuming that is your intention. Hope that helps.

Thank you! I looked this over like 10+times and it was the same thing the instructor had in the video. I changed it and it worked like you said, so then I was confused why it worked for the instructor. Turns out I didn't finish the last 5 seconds of the video xD the instructor changed it to class at the last second of the video lol.
