The challenge asks you to Declare a variable that is named the camel-cased version of "first name". Store the user's first name into this new variable using console.readLine. Do just that - no need for any other code. Just one line reading user input and storing it in a named variable.
Make sense?
Steve.

I'll go back to my initial answer - you're doing too much code!
You have a console object provided and you're being asked to create a variable which is called the camel case version of 'first name' - that would look like firstName.
You want to assign a value into it by reading user input; you've got that bit, sort of. You could use console.readLine("What is your first name?: ");
Putting all that together, you get:
String firstName = console.readLine("What is your first name?: ");
That's task one done.
Make sense?
Steve.

printf.
