28,694 PointsReplace the faulty code with the correct code and click on "Recheck work". The code i posted should pass the first part of the challenge.

28,694 PointsYou can start the challenge again, change browsers or clear the browser cache (i avoid doing this as i'm never entirely sure what's in the cache). Then copy and past:
String firstName = console.readLine("Enter first name");This code passes the first part of the challenge for me. Ie. should work. If you can't get it to accept correct code then maybe send an email (including screenshot) to support.
