Question :Print out to the screen using the printf method on console, "First name: " and the user's first name.
code :-- String Firstname = console.readLine("what is ur Fname" ); String firstname = "SRI"; console.printf("%s can code in java", Firstname ); console.printf("%s can code in java", firstname );
error: Oops! It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing.
Kindly help me in solving this
// I have imported java.io.Console for you. It is a variable called console.
String Firstname = console.readLine("what is ur Fname" );
String firstname = "SRI";
console.printf("%s can code in java", Firstname );
console.printf("%s can code in java", firstname );
//String lastName = console.readLine("what is ur lname" );
//console.printf("%s can code in java", lastName );

One other correction: String Firstname = console.readLine("what is ur Fname" ); should be String firstName to follow camelcase. The same goes for the line console.printf("%s can code in java", Firstname );
So, if you fix your code with the above recommendations, you will be taking the String firstName and assigning whatever value you type into the console with the readLine() method.
Your code should look more like this:
String firstName = console.readLine("what is ur Fname"); console.printf("%s can code in java", firstName);
Does that help?

should be:
// I have imported java.io.Console for you. It is a variable called console.
String firstName = console.readLine("First name: ");
console.printf("%s can code in java!", firstName);
//String lastName = console.readLine("Last name: ");
//console.printf("%s can code in java!", lastName);
