1,028 PointsWhat am i missing here? i am getting an error: Make sure you are using `equalsIgnoreCase` on the `firstExample` variable
I can't figure out where i'm going wrong on this one.
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
if (firstExample.equalsIgnoreCase(thirdExample)) {
console.printf("first and third are the same ignoring case");
}

String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
// you still have to have this in there
if (firstExample.equalsIgnoreCase(secondExample)) {
console.printf("first is equal to second");
}
if (firstExample.equalsIgnoreCase(thirdExample)) {
console.printf("first and third are the same ignoring case");
