The answer lies somewhere in your console Class.
You've been provided a package behind the scenes within which to call the printf method. That package is called console and you can use that to output the text via the printf method.
String firstName="Chris";
console.printf("%s can code in Java!", firstName);
You'll learn more about packages as you go through the Java courses. :)
