5,080 PointsQuestion about concatenation with PHP
I am having a problem concatenating the $fullName at the end of the echo but it's not right.
Instructions:
Remove the four underscores in the echo command and concatenate the remaining text with the variable $fullName.
Here's my code, what am I doing wrong?
<?php
$firstName = "Mike";
$middleName = "the";
$lastName = "Frog";
$fullName = $firstName . " " . $middleName . " " . $lastName;
echo "The designer at Shirts 4 Mike shirts is named" . $fullName;
?>

echo "The designer at Shirts 4 Mike shirts is named " . $fullName;

The designer at Shirts 4 Mike shirts is namedMike the Frog
Thanks, @Sam!
