Call the printf method on the console object and make it write out "<YOUR NAME> can code in Java!"

Could you type me some tips ,please?

Name.java 
// I have setup a java.io.Console object for you named console="Rahmatulla"
String firstName = "Rahmatulla");
console.printf("1976!", Rahmatulla);
      }

}

Let me help you clean this up a bit. Your first line of code has a parenthesis that doesn't need to be there. The next line should use the variable called firstName that is the placeholder for your name in the console.printf method. The two curly braces at the end of your code don't need to be there, so just remove them. The finished code should look like this:

// I have setup a java.io.Console object for you named console
String firstName = "Rahmatulla";
console.printf("%s can code in Java!", firstName);

Hope this helps, but feel free to ask more questions if anything is unclear.
