1) Use the $fullName variable to display the following string to the screen. Rasmus Lerdorf was the original creator of PHP 2) Use an escape character to add a newline to the end of the string.

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