472 Pointshow do you compare two variables like numberOne and numberTwo?
I need to know how to do numberOne equals numberTwo
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
if (firstExample .equals secondExample); {
console.print("first is equal to second");
}

28,558 PointsYour code is extremely close. There are just three issues:
You should not have a space between
firstExample
andequals
.You need to wrap the argument to
equals
in parenthesis.You need to use
console.printf
to print stuff, notconsole.print
.
Like this:
if (firstExample.equals(secondExample)); {
console.printf("first is equal to second");
}
