Some error...

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Console console = System.console();
    // TODO:  1. Create a new String named place and 
    //assign it a value of your choosing.
    String place = "Paris";
    // TODO:  2. Using the provided console object, 
    //           prompt the user "What is your first name?" and store that in a variable
    String name = console.readLine("What is your first name?");
    // TODO:  3. Print out to the console "Hello <FIRST_NAME>!  Welcome to <PLACE>."
    console.printf=("Hello %s!  Welcome to %s.", name, place);
  }

The console said this line is incorrect, i couldn't see it T T 

console.printf=("Hello %s!  Welcome to %s.", name, place);

Please help. Thank you.

Hi,

You have an extra equal sign after your console.printf() function. Remove that and it should be working.

Hope it helps!
