Treehouse TeacherHi there! While your output would be what is expected it does so by changing the value of $fullName. What if I added this to the instructions? Echo out the full name plus "was the original creator of PHP" and a new line without changing the value of $fullName from what it was at the end of Step 2.
:hint: The easiest way to accomplish this is to echo the string using double quotes to expand the value of the $fullName variable. Doing it this way means that no concatenation is required.
Hope this helps!
