Add a variable to store a user’s first name using console.readLine. Make sure the variable is the camel cased representa

Is this code wrong anywhere??

IO.java 
// I have imported java.io.Console for you.  It is a variable called console.
 String firstName = console.readline("What is your name?  ");

Yes, a sintax error: The console method is misspeled. It should be readLine() in camel case. Remember Java is case sensitive.
