if(firstExample.equalsIgnorecase(secondExample)){ console.printf("first is equal to second"); System.exit(0); }
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
if(firstExample.equalsIgnorecase(secondExample)){
console.printf("first is equal to second");
System.exit(0);
}
String thirdExample = "HELLO";

// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
// capital C
if(firstExample.equalsIgnoreCase(secondExample)){
console.printf("first is equal to second");
// remove the exit line
}
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
