Undefined Variable $Member when trying to save data in my database phpmyadmin - laravel

Question

This is the controller code.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\Member;
class membercontroller extends Controller {
function addmemb(Request $req) {
$member = new $Member;
$member->name = $req->name;
$member->age = $req->age;
$member->email = $req->email;
$member->save();
}
}
View Code:
<h1>Enter The Member Info </h1>
<form action= "addmembers" method="POST">
#Csrf
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Enter Your Name."> <br><br>
<input type="text" name="age" placeholder="Enter Your Age."> <br><br>
<input type="text" name="email" placeholder="Enter Your Email."> <br><br>
<button type="submit">Add Member</button> <br><br>
</form>
Route::view('addmembers', 'addmembers');
Route::post('addmembers', [membercontroller::class, 'addmemb']);
These are the Routes for the view and functions. Can anyone point out my mistake? It's saying Undefined Variable.
Whenever I try to save data in my database it shows an error which says $Member is undefined. Please point out what should I do to make this run?

Answer 1

$Member is not a Variable! its a model so you have to use it like this:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\Member;
class membercontroller extends Controller
{
function addmemb(Request $req){
$member = new Member; ////////
$member->name = $req->name;
$member->age = $req->age;
$member->email = $req->email;
$member->save();
}
}
