Courses Plus Student 321 PointsI am on task 2 of 3 in the first java course
I inputted the following code String firstName = "Kayla"; console.printf("%s can code Java", firstName);
When I preview the code it says Kayla can code Java
However the task is suggesting I have an error with the printf function
// I have setup a java.io.Console object for you named console
String firstName = "Kayla";
console.printf("%s can code Java", firstName);

2,068 PointsYou wrote your code correctly. But Treehouse ask you to make it like this (pay attention to the "can code in Java!") - Call the printf method on the console object and make it write out "<YOUR NAME> can code in Java!"
String firstName = "Kayla"; console.printf("%s can code in Java!", firstName);
Seems like you just forgot to put "in" and "!" sign ;)
