Java Java Basics Getting Started with Java Strings, Variables, and Formatting

Cant understand the problem

What is wrong?

Name.java
        String primeiroNome = André;

1 Answer

A couple of issues. First, the editor appears to only speak English. Sorry. Second, when you assign a String to a variable it has to be a String:

String firstName = "Andre";

Notice that Andre is inside quotation marks.
