First Timer. Regarding syntax errors. Does the "^" arrow indicate exactly where i went wrong in the line of code?

Hello Corey,

From Looking at the Code , I think It shouldn't have space between first Name.

String firstName = "console";

I am also re-take challenge and this code works fine!

String firstName = "Juthawong";
console.printf("%s can code in Java",firstName);

Thank you
