I can't type where I want to type. The delete and backspace buttons are not working correctly.

Am I supposed to start typing my own name without spaces between the " marks?

Name.java
String myNIame = ""

First of all you have to correct the variable to:

String myName = "";

(Remember to put the ";" at the end)

Then if what u want is to create a String with your name then what u have to do is:

String myName = "Imani";

The cursor will not allow me to insert between the quotation marks. Maybe I have a virus.
