Courses Plus Student 2,166 PointsString manipulation Code challenge - "Task 1 is no longer passing" ?
There are 3 tasks/parts to this code challenge. I'm able to complete task 1 and task 2, but when I add my code to finish task 3, I get the error message "Task 1 is no longer passing"
I do not understand why I'm receiving this error message and why the system doesn't consider my code to correctly finish Task 3.
Thanks!
<?php

$fullname = $firstName . ' ' . $lastName;
$fullname . = ' ' . 'was the original creator of PHP' . "\n";
echo $fullname;
?>

<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$firstName = 'Rasmus';
$lastName = 'Lerdorf';
$fullname = $firstName . ' ' . $lastName;
echo $fullname . ' was the original creator of PHP' . "\n";
?>
Not sure and in theory the .= addition to a string should work but maybe it doesnt for this challenge.
