Please tell me what is wrong with my code.

when I go to preview it JavaTester.java:119: error: cannot find symbol String response = console.readline ("Do you understand do while loops?"); ^ symbol: method readline(String) location: variable console of type MockConsole 1 error

Example.java 
// I have initialized a java.io.Console for you. It is in a variable named console.
String response =  console.readline ("Do you understand do while loops?");

Hi gdubyah. I had to stare at this one for awhile. Don't forget methods in Java are in camel case and case sensitive. So the method you want is readLine(). Good luck and keep at it!!
