Error Oops!It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing on Java Basics, Task 2 of 4

First Task is to declare first name and it pass to task 2 Second Task: Declare another variable, naming this one the camel-cased version of "last name". Use console.readLine to store the user's last name into this new variable. What i did wrong to get the error ?

IO.java 
// I have imported java.io.Console for you.  It is a variable called console.
String firstName = console.readLine ("Whats ur first name?  ");
String lastName = console.readline ("Whats ur last name?  ");

Seems i found it myself. Second line of the code : "readLine" was with lowecase L. Hope this will help others also in the future

String lastName = console.readline ("Whats ur last name?  ");

You must make L capital in readLine() method, So you should enter:

String lastName = console.readLine ("Whats ur last name?  ");
