1,781 PointsThe first line refers the console object to the variable console.
Basically without it you'd have to write System.console.printf("Hello my name is Diego") every time;
With the first line of code you just say to the computer: "Okay I want System.console to become console"
Try changing "Console console = System.console;" to "Console csl = System.console();"
Now you can output text using "csl.printf("Hi my name is Diego");"
