It gives me an error that I forgot to pass the firstName paramater altough I included it in the function

My code is: console.printf("First name:%s\n", firstName");

Hey Pablo,

It's because in your code you have a quotation after writing firstName. It should look like this:

Snippet.java
console.printf("First name:%s\n", firstName);

Hey I deleted the quotation but it still gives me the same error.

console.printf("First name:%s\n", firstName) ;
