what did I do wrong
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console.
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
if (firstExample == secondExample){
console.printf("first is equal to second");
}
if (firstExample == thirdExample.equalsIgnoringcase("hello") ){
console.printf("first and third are the same ignoring case");
}

1,063 Pointshi jeffrey you need to use equalsIgnoreCase() and not the equality sign (==) remember it is not boolean,.
// I have imported a java.io.Console for you, it is named console. String firstExample = "hello"; String secondExample = "hello"; String thirdExample = "HELLO";
if(firstExample.equalsIgnoreCase(secondExample)){ console.printf("first is equal to second"); } if(firstExample.equalsIgnoreCase(thirdExample)){ console.printf("first is equal to third ignoringCase"); }
and jeffrey remember we are all doing mistake never give Up never give in, thanks
