Code edit problem

Maybe I'm doing it wrong somehow, but I can't seem to erase the parts of blue text code in the second test. I can add the correct code to the places it needs to be, but am left with extra words that I can't erase. It ends up looking like this: String favoriteColor String equals = "blue" ;

1 Answer

Just erase all the text in the code window and replace it with:

String favoriteColor = "blue";

If you're unable to edit the code, try reloading your browser. If this doesn't work, try using Google Chrome as your browser in case there is a compatibility issue. I tried it and it works perfectly.
