2,039 PointsSyntax confusion
Hello i was hoping if someone could help me. I think i understand what the question is asking me to do. However I am struggling to figure out how the syntax is supposed to be constructed,
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
if (firstExample == secondExample) {
console.printf("first is equal to second");
}
//if (noun.equalsIgnoreCase("Stupid"))
if (firstExample.equalsIgnoreCase() == thirdExample) {
console.printf("first and third are the same ignoring case");
}
