In the provided source code there is a small php code.

$web = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
if (is_numeric($web)){
      if (strlen($web) < 4){
          if ($web > 10000){
                 echo ('<div class="w3-panel w3-green"><h3>Correct</h3><p>darkCTF{}</p></div>');
          } else {
                 echo ('<div class="w3-panel w3-red"><h3>Wrong!</h3> <p>Ohhhhh!!! Very Close  </p></div>');
          }
      } else {
             echo ('<div class="w3-panel w3-red"><h3>Wrong!</h3><p>Nice!!! Near But Far</p></div>');
      }
} else {
    echo ('<div class="w3-panel w3-red"><h3>Wrong!</h3><p>Ahhhhh!!! Try Not Easy</p></div>');
}
?>

The code checks the user agent against three conditions:

  • If it's numeric
  • If its length is less than 4
  • If its value is greater than 10000

At first i didn't know what value could meet these conditions simultaneously, because of course there's no way that a number is greater than 10000 and its length is less than 4 at the same time. But then i remembered that PHP allows numbers to be written in scientific notation (ie. 5e10) so i changed my user agent to 9e5 which is numeric, its length is 3 and its value is 900000. I reloaded the page and got the flag.
