Hey I need help please. I keep getting 2 errors.

I keep getting back string is incombatible types: String cannot be converted 0 int

Here's my code int ageAsString = console.readLine("How old are you? "); int age = Integer.parseInt(ageAsString); if (age < 13) { console.printf("Sorry you must be at least 13 to use this program. \n"); System.exit(0);
