3,209 Pointsif Statements
I can't seem to figure out how to code this properly. What am I missing?
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
if (firstExample.equals ("secondExample")) {
console.printf("first is equal to second");
}
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";

remove " " from the statement:
if (firstExample.equals ("secondExample"))
And move the corrected if statement under the String declarations. The compiler goes from top to bottom and canΒ΄t see other Strings you are comparing to
