That looks fine to me, it seems this challenge just doesn't wanna parse that input properly for some reason. You probably don't need to/shouldn't worry about downgrading Java, unless you run into parts of this course later that just don't seem to work on your Java version (I doubt there will be, Java historically doesn't change all that much over time in breaking ways), but you should probably email Treehouse support and let them know about this broken challenge. You should be able to skip this challenge safely until they get back to you and patch it
