498 PointsNot sure why is not passing, I copy and paste the code on my workspace and looks like what I understood you are asking.
$firstName = 'Rasmus'; $lastName = 'Lerdorf'; $fullname = "$firstName $lastName"; $fullname .= ' was the original creator of PHP' . "\n";
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$firstName = 'Rasmus';
$lastName = 'Lerdorf';
$fullname = "$firstName $lastName";
$fullname .= ' was the original creator of PHP' . "\n";
?>

2,533 PointsYou want to add this to end line as you need to output: echo $fullname." was the original creator of PHP". "\n" ;
The previous task will not allow you to do your bottom line for the fullname and lastname as your adding to it before you need to

498 PointsI added echo to test it, and didn't work either, I think it has to do with mutating the variable and breaking previous test, that's when you start missing constants. If that is the case, I think the test should be shown, so users can debug it properly.
