As KRIS NIKOLAISEN has requested please paste your code.
anyway this is how I worked out the challenge
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
//first challenge I used String class equals() method to check on equality
if(firstExample.equals(secondExample)){
console.printf("first is equal to second");
}
//second challenge I used String class equalsIgnoreCase method to disregard smallcaps and uppercase letters
if(firstExample.equalsIgnoreCase(thirdExample)){
console.printf("first and third are the same ignoring case");
}
