Need Help with PHP Error: Undefined Variable while Developing Laptop E-commerce Site

I hope you're all having a great day! I'm currently working on an exciting project – building an e-commerce website that sells laptops. However, I've run into a bit of a roadblock while coding.

Here's the scenario: I'm working on a crucial part of the website where I want to display the laptop prices dynamically. To achieve this, I've written the following PHP code snippet:

<?php
// Extracted laptop price from the database
$laptopPrice = 1299.99;

// Trying to display the price
echo "The laptop is priced at: $" . $laptopPrice;
?>

The problem is that when I try to execute this code, I get the following error message:

Notice: Undefined variable: laptopPrice in index.php on line 6

I've been scratching my head trying to figure out what's going wrong here. I've double-checked my code, and it seems like the $laptopPrice variable should be defined properly. Could there be something I'm missing?

Has anyone encountered a similar issue or can spot what I might be doing wrong? I'm eager to learn and fix this
