2,310 PointsA Bug?
I think I have entered this correctly but it keeps saying if im doing the equal and printf methods right... Please help.
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
if (firstExample.equals("secondExample")) {
console.printf("first is equal to second");
}

6,255 PointsHey Solomon, you are passing "secondExample" in equals method as a string, that's why you are getting error. Pass it as a variable. Because you are checking the equality between firstExample and secondExample.
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
if (firstExample.equals(secondExample)) {
console.printf("first is equal to second");
}
