Challenge: Escape Sequences in Strings

Link to the challenge:

Do you see the syntax errors below the editor window? These are telling you that your code is not typed correctly. You can’t add newlines to a double-quoted string by just adding additional lines. A double-quoted string must be one single line of text. You have to use the special escape character for new line (which is given in the table in the instructions) to put new lines in the string. The second line has a Tab at the beginning of it, so again, you must use the special escape character for tab.
