I don't know how to correct my code

// I have imported java.io.Console for you. It is a variable called console. Public Static Void main (String [] args) { Console console = System. console (); // Welcome to the Introdutions program! Your code goes below here String firstName = "Izzard"; console.printf("Hello, my name is %s\n", firstName); console.printf("%s is learning how to write java \n", firstName);

}

Hi Zhiming

I will try to come back to your question later. And you could help everybody if you format your question a bit.

You are getting this error because you are using uppercase in your main method declaration, make sure you are using lowercase:

public static void main(String[] args)
