I had a really hard time with this lesson, I accidentally created some bugs and it took me sometime to fix them but I finished the prototype anyway. So when I got here the instructions seemed a little bit too much for me, and I tried doing some stuff but it says that it has a compiler error and when I go to check what the problem is it just goes blank. Im not even sure if what Im doing is right, please help!
/* So the age old knock knock joke goes like this:
Person A: Knock Knock.
Person B: Who's there?
Person A: Banana
Person B: Banana who?
...as long as Person A has answered Banana the above repeats endlessly
...assuming the person answers Orange we'd see
Person B: Orange who?
...and then the punchline.
Person A: Orange you glad I didn't say Banana again?
(It's a really bad joke that makes it sound like "Aren't you glad I didn't say Banana again?")
Let's just assume the only two words passed in from the console from Person B are either banana or orange.

// ====BEGIN PROMPTING CODE====
// Person A asks:
boolean notBanana;

noun = console.readLine("Enter a fruit: ");
notBanana = (noun.equalsIgnoreCase("Orange"));
if(notBanana) {
console.printf("This fruit is not allowed. Try again.\n\n");
}
}while(notBanana);
console.printf("Knock Knock.\n");
console.printf("Knock Knock.\n");
// Person B asks and Person A's response is stored in the String who:
String who = console.readLine("Who's there? ");

console.printf("%s who?\n", who);
