I dont understand the question

I followed the instructions but it doesn't make any sense. lol define a sting with a camel casing name then use console.readLine to define username. Maybe ive been up too late

IO.java 
// I have imported java.io.Console for you.  It is a variable called
sting firstName = console.readLine "Landon Sinclair";

Hi Landon,

I haven't taken Java yet but I've taken courses for other languages. Could the problem be the spelling? Maybe write string firstName instead of sting?

I got it. (String wasn't capitalized or spelled right along with some other missing brackets. Rookie of the year %) lol I was up late last night, frustrated, thanks for the help
