sorry, I'm stuck. I tried many ways...

how I am supposed to compare these strings

Equality.java 
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console. 
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";



if (firstExmple.equalsIgnoreCase(secondExample)) { 
  console.printf("first is equal to second");
  System.exit(0);
                        }
