// 1) no need of using System, in the workspace, unless it is being asked for
// 2) your order is wrong, and does not make any sense
// string firstName = Console.ReadLine(), this is correct, and it would have to come right at the top
// then, you will have to use Writeline, to print the name which is already inside the firstName variable.
