230,688 PointsThere are a few issues here:
- the code references "Console" (capital "C") but the provided object is named "console" (lower case)
- the code uses angle brackets(
< >
) where the syntax requires parentheses (( )
) - variables cannot be referenced by their contents (Sharan) but must be referenced by name (firstName)
- the instructions say to print not just your name, but also the words " can code in Java!"
