Bummer: Check that the only space is between Rasmus and Lerdorf.

I have two versions working in the console. Only one space between first and last names.

Code testing script needs to be adjusted.

$firstName = "Rasmus"; $lastName = "Lerdorf"; $fullName = $firstName . " " . $lastName . "\n";

//$firstName = "Rasmus"; //$lastName = "Lerdorf"; //$fullName = $firstName; //$fullName .= " "; //$fullName .= $lastName . "\n";

index.php
<?php

//Place your code below this comment
$firstName = "Rasmus";
$lastName = "Lerdorf";
$fullName = $firstName . " " . $lastName . "\n";
//$fullName = $firstName;
//$fullName .= " ";
//$fullName .= $lastName . "\n";
?>
