First line. String with uppercase (not string) - this will pass you throw missing 1 of 3. In general!! check your code with java online compiler!! (you have a lot of errors)

About the rest its wrong (wrong syntax and not like the Q ask for). Follow the instructions - why you dont use "console.printf"? Read the Q again

hint:

// I have setup a java.io.Console object for you named console
String firstName ="andre";
console.printf(....rest-of-the-code....);

Ask more if this wont help you.
