The code isnt working what is wrong with it?
// I have imported java.io.Console for you. It is a variable called console.
String firstName = ("First Name");
String lastName = ("Last Name");
console.readLine("Name? ", firstName);
console.readLine("Last name? ", lastName);
console.printf("Name %s", firstName);
console.printf("Name %s", lastName);
