Dropdown Menu and PHP

I am new in coding. I started learn PHP and I got into a problem that I tried to catch the data from dropdown menu and print it inside the same code via PHP. But the problem is when I try to select it doesn't show anything. Please help!

    <?php
  if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
    $code = $_POST['coder'];
    echo "You are ".$code." coder";
  }
?>

<form action="" method="post" name="myForm" id="myForm">
    <table>
        <tr>
            <td>Languages: </td>
            <td>
                <select name="coder">
                    <option>Select One</option>
                    <option value="JAVA">JAVA</option>
                    <option value="PHP">PHP</option>
                    <option value="C#">C#</option>
                    <option value="C++">C++</option>
                </select>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td></td>
            <td><input type="submit" value ="Submit">
                <input type="reset" value="Clear">
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
</form>

isset($_POST['submit']) becoming false because there is no any element with name "submit". Try setting name to submit button as.

<input type="submit" value ="Submit" name="submit">
