What is the spelling of the argument? in the preview, I am able to print out my name

This is kind of embarrassing for just a beginning of the code. So I was asked to declare a string with my name on it, and to print it out in the console. I am already able to print out my name in the preview section, but I don't understand on why it's not correct. Could anyone help me to continue to the next section please?

Name.java 
// I have setup a java.io.Console object for you named console
String firstName = "Agus";
console.printf("%s", firstName);

You are right on track, though look at the task: "<YOUR NAME> can code in Java!". So you have left to print out " can code in Java!".

Thank you so much, I get it now. I missed out the "can code in Java" I have added it up and manage to proceed to the next step. Thanks again
