445 PointsGetting an error in Exercise 1 Challenge Task 3, it's saying I don't have my variables in the correct order.
I made it through the first two challenge tasks just fine, but it doesn't seem to want to take what I've added for the third. This is my code:
String name = console.readLine("");
console.printf("%s", name);
String pastTenseVerb = console.readLine("");
console.printf("%s really %s this coding exercise", name, pastTenseVerb);
Am I just missing a line or is this a bug because I get an error saying "Make sure you are passing 'name' and 'pastTenseVerb' to the 'console.printf' in the correct order."

Your first printf
statement wasn't called for in the challenge and I think it's throwing off the final output check in the 3rd task.
Your 1st, 3rd, and 4th lines seem fine and will pass the challenge.
