Answers portion codes - confused

I'm just confused if i need to input the complete codes like these:

import java.io.Console; public class Name { public static void main(String[] args) { } }

or not, they error in the preview mode and I cannot proceed in the next step. or I'll just place the direct answer for the checker to work?

Name.java 
// I have setup a java.io.Console object for you named console
//import java.io.Console;

public class Name {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Console console = System.console();
        String firstName = "Wayne Ponce";
        // Welcome to the Introductions program!  Your code goes below here
        //console.printf("Hello, my name is Craig");
  }
}

ahh, I have already figured it out, so you should place the codes directly without placing the other required codes in making files in java
