28,558 PointsFor the basic Java challenges Treehouse takes care of most boilerplate code for you. Meaning that you don't have to create a class or a method or import the Console
class.
You just have to enter the specific code that will accomplish the task you are presented with. Since the first task asks you to create a variable called firstName
and to store your name in it that's all the code you have to enter.
Like this:
String firstName = "Rick";
That single line of code is enough to pass the first task.
