In PHP concatination the third challenge keeps saying "You did not use the escape line". Where am I making a mistake?

This is the code <?php //Place your code below this comment $firstName= 'Rasmus'; $lastName= 'Lerdorf'; $fullName= $firstName ." ". $lastName ; echo $fullName." ". "was the original creator of PHP."."/n";

?>

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";

?>

I think you don need to concatenate break line (\n). U can just use it together with the rest of the sentence. So it would look like this: echo $fullName . " was the original creator of PHP.\n";
