if(condition to be met) {
//results of met condition;
}
So this one would look like
if (firstExample.equals(secondExample)) {
console.printf("first is equal to the second");
}
Thanks. Let me know if this helps.

in words:
define the variables.
If hello is equal to hello ignoring the case, then
say first is equal to second.
in code:
*/
String firstExample = "hello";
String secondExample = "hello";
String thirdExample = "HELLO";
if (firstExample.equalsIgnoreCase(secondExample)) {
console.printf("first is equal to second"); }
Hope it helps!! ISAIAH S
