I can not solve the task

I can not find out how to use the exception at the end. I think I do the same like in the lesson...

index.php 
<?php

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

?>

You added an extra newline character and double quote. Remove them then you're good to go.

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

Instead of this:

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