65,469 PointsYou "misspelled" firstName
. A capital N and a lowercase n are different to Java.
You typed firstname
. The only difference is the capital N and the lowercase n you typed. Java is case-sensitive, which means firstname
is different from firstName
. Try using firstName
instead!
I hope this helps. ~Alex
