Delete:
Console console = system.Console();
And change 'Console' to console and you should be good.

1,409 PointsHi Yongshuo Wang, Craig wants firstName to write out 'First name: ' and 'string' in
public static void main(string[]args) {
should be capitalized.

5,500 PointsHi, first the string should be String.
What Craig means like this:
String firstName = console.readLine("First Name: ");
Hope it can help.
