950 PointsI've gone over this a fair amount and I can't seem to figure out what I've done wrong here. Help? :)
Trying to best this coding challenge and I can't figure out what's wrong with my code that's causing the compiling error. Any help would be appreciated.
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
if (firstExample.equals(secondExample)) {
console.printf("first is equal to second")
}

if (firstExample.equals(secondExample)) {
console.printf("first is equal to second");
}
