Seriously what is wrong with this code

I am trying to do the last challenge

1) Use the $fullName variable

2) Display the following string to the screen.

Rasmus Lerdorf was the original creator of PHP.

3) Use an escape character to add a newline to the end of the string.

<?php

//Place your code below this comment $firstName = 'Rasmus'; $lastName = 'Lerdorf';

$fullName = $firstName." ". $lastName;

echo $fullName." "."was the original creator of PHP\n";

?>

You combining strings in the wrong way.

<?php
    //Place your code below this comment
    $firstName = "Rasmus";
    $lastName = "Lerdorf";
    $fullName = $firstName . " " . $lastName;
    $sentence = $fullName . " was the original creator of PHP. \n";
    echo $sentence;
?>
