Treehouse TeacherCan you share the error the please? That looks good as long as you have declared the firstName variable before using it.

Treehouse TeacherOh shoot, sorry I didn't see it sooner jonathanfantroy2 . The instructions require you to specifically type something. Can you read them again:
Call the print function on the console object and make it print out "<YOUR NAME> can code in Java!"
