205 PointsI'm trying to complete Task 3 of Multiple.java challenge, and I'm getting errors and not sure what it's asking
This is what I wrote for the answer, and someone help figure out what I'm doing wrong? console.printf("%s really %s", name, verb);
Also, my workshop template is giving me errors on both of the exercises. It didn't perform and of the tasks, even though I had the same thing the instructor had on his worksheet. I just keep getting error messages, can someone please help.
// I've imported java.io.Console for you. It is stored in a variable called console for you.
String name =console.readLine("Enter your name: ");
String pastTenseVerb = console.readLine("Enter your name: ");
console.printf("%s really %s", name, verb);

205 PointsThank you Joseph for your response.
I did try that before and I just tried it again, and below is the error that I'm getting, and suggestions? I also changed question 2 to pastTenseVerb, which was correct.
console.printF("%s really %s", name, pastTenseVerb); error msg: JavaTester.java:118: error: cannot find symbol Console.printF("%s really %s", name, pastTenseVerb); ^ symbol: variable Console location: class JavaTester 1 error
Thank you in advance for your help.

205 PointsThank you so much, that did it.
Per chance do you know what I can do to get my tasks on Workspace to perform. I always get error messages when I try to execute the tasks (on both workspaces).
