let firstName = "Karunakar"; let lastName = "Patel"; let role = 'developer'; const msg = firstName + " " + lastName + "

I was really stuck on this, I don't know y this is not working.

app.js 
let firstName = "Karunakar";
let lastName = "Patel";
let role = "developer";

let msg = firstName + " " + lastName + ":" + role.toUpperCase() + ".";

console.log(msg);

Hi Karunakar,

I do not believe you need a period at the end of this line. I also added a space after your semicolon after your lastName concatenation. I believe they asked this in step two of this challenge. I also removed the console.log(msg); just in case this was causing an error with the testing code they had to run against this code exercise.

Here is the code I used to pass this code challenge. Please let me know if you have any questions. 

let firstName = 'Karunakar';
let lastName = 'Patel';
let role = 'developer';

let msg = firstName + ' ' + lastName + ': ' + role.toUpperCase();
