C# Basics, Final Challenge, Task 2.

Apparently I've forgotten to assign firstName to the Console.Write parameter. I do not understand how this is..

CodeChallenge.cs 
string entry = "firstName";
Console.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine(entry);

You're almost there! When you do Console.ReadLine it returns a string of whatever the user input into the console. So here you just need to return that into the string variable you defined earlier. That will definitely work, but in order to pass the challenge the entry variable may need to be updated to firstName.
