Instructions  
Assign the following three lines of text into the single variable myStr using escape sequences.

FirstLine  
\SecondLine  
ThirdLine  
You will need to use escape sequences to insert special characters correctly. You will also need to follow the spacing as it looks above, with no spaces between escape sequences or words.

Here is the text with the escape sequences written out.

FirstLinenewlinebackslashSecondLinebackslashcarriage-returnThirdLine

My code:

```auto
var myStr = "Firstline\n\\SecondLine\\\rThirdLine";

```

my error message is :  
myStr should have encoded text with the proper escape sequences and no spacing.

The `L` in “FirstLine” needs to be capitalized.
