It says "!Make sure to call the `printf` method on the `console` object.

where do i put object as easy at it may seem to somebody experienced I'm a bit lost

IO.java 
// I have imported java.io.Console for you.  It is a variable called console.
String firstName= console.readLine( "What is your name ?");
String lastName= console.readLine("What is your last name ?");
console.printf("Firstname:%s:", firstName);

Hi Lera,

You need to only call printf for variable lastName, the same way as you did for firstName. Then it should work.
