Maybe there's something I'm missing out on here.

I followed everything but can't get Hello to show up. Did I miss something?

Program.cs 
class Program
 {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        int wholeNumber = 4;
        double pi = 3.1415;
        bool status = true;
        string greeting = "hello";
        char letter = 'z';

        System.Console.WriteLine(wholeNumber.GetType());
        System.Console.WriteLine(pi.GetType());
        System.Console.WriteLine(status.GetType());
        System.Console.WriteLine(greeting.GetType());
        System.Console.WriteLine(letter.GetType());
    }
}

Hey Matthew Thomas ! :wave:

Are you trying to write hello to the console? Meaning greeting's value?

If so, relating to the code you've provided above, I would try removing the GetType() call from that 2nd to last line.

System.Console.WriteLine(greeting);

and see if that displays what you're expecting.

However, for this challenge that you've posted this question to is far more simple than all of that and is simply asking for 

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        System.Console.WriteLine("Hello");
    }
}
