iOS Development Techdegree Student 2,905 PointsChallenge task 3 of concatenation
Hello,
I'm doing the challenge in between video's about PHP basics and now i'm working on the challenge about concatenation and i don't know what i'm doing wrong. Task 1 and 2 are good and then when i submit my answer for task 3 i get the message "Oops! It looks like tast 2 is no longer passing.". I tried everything and talked about it with colleages and they say that it's good what i have filled in. I have used the following code: $firstName = 'Rasmus'; $lastName = 'Lerdorf'; $fullName = $firstName .' '. $lastName; $fullName .= ' was the original creator of PHP' ."\n"; echo $fullName;
Can you see what is wrong with this answer? Thanks for your help. Greetings Ej
<?php

$firstName = 'Rasmus';
$lastName = 'Lerdorf';
$fullName = $firstName .' '. $lastName;
$fullName .= ' was the original creator of PHP' ."\n";
echo $fullName;

$fullName = $firstName .' '. $lastName;
echo "{$fullName} was the original creator of PHP.\n";
