Guys need help, can't understand my error in one IO exercise

Using the console's printf method, display a message that says, "Last name: " followed by the last name that the user has entered.

The error: Bummer! Did you forget to pass the lastName parameter to the printf function?

Code: // I have imported java.io.Console for you. It is a variable called console.

String firstName = console.readLine ("Vitalij"); String lastName = console.readLine ("Kacanovskij");

console.printf("%s\n", firstName); console.printf("First Name:", firstName);

console.printf("%s\n", lastName); console.printf("Last name:", lastName);

Hello

It hard to read the code as pasted but it looks ok? may be there is a typo. Your code should look like this for all 4 parts of the challenge.

// I have imported java.io.Console for you.  It is a variable called console.
String firstName = console.readLine();
String lastName = console.readLine();
console.printf("First name: %s", firstName);
console.printf("Last name: %s", lastName);

If this answers your question, please mark the question as answered.
