I changed String to lower case, but the code still runs ok. Even misspelling, like 'Sting' the code still works fin and ask me to type name and adjective like he wanted in the question, it doesn't recognize as an error.

1,847 PointsBit of an old post, but in regard to what Patrik Horvath said. You CAN use the console import in a real IDE. I just made a java file and used command prompt to compile the file. The result worked just fine, so I will definitely say that you can use the console import in native java, and thus it should work in an IDE. Though I will say, its a lot more common to just use system.out.println() instead of the console approach, but it doesnt mean the other approach is null and void. ;p
Just wanted to give my opinion on that matter, cheers.

313 PointsHi Patrik,
Yah it seems it doesn't compile the code for some reason. I did same as he did in the video. I'm using the workspace provided by TreeHouse. It is actually bit annoying because sometimes I can't type in the main code so I need to close and open it again. Even if I create new file still doesn't work. Anyway, thanks for ur help!

11,110 Pointstry it in some IDE for java you can try IntelliJ, Eclypse, NetBeans or for Begginers there is BlueJ where you can easly learn OOP because it show you REAL object and all his features and more :) also Console no work in real IDE :) there you need use System.in and System.out, this should be writen in Java courses because peoples get then confused :)
