I checked the code that you provided above and it works just fine when I tested every line.
Anyway here is my code which is similar to yours.
String firstName =console.readLine ("what is your first name?");
String lastName =console.readLine ("what is your first name?");
console.printf("First name: %s", firstName);
console.printf("Last name: %s", lastName);

UX Design Techdegree Graduate 22,796 PointsInstead of working with console object please replace it with Scanner Object for Eclipse IDE. You will also need to import the Scanner Object using this line _ import java.util.Scanner; _
// Console console = System.console(); remove the Console Object and replace it with Scanner
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter your name");
String name = scanner. nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter an adjective");
String adjective = scanner. nextLine();
System.out.printf("%s is very %s", name, adjective);
Please let me know if this helps

UX Design Techdegree Graduate 22,796 PointsMd. Jafrin Hossain glad it worked, the only disadvantage of the Scanner Object is you have to prompt the user manually using System.out.println() method.

6,577 PointsThank you so much for the reply Tonnie Fanadez . Would you kindly help me in the following section
Code in my ide(eclipse):
package treehouse; import java.io.*;
public class Chechk { public static void main(String[] args) { String fn = "Jafrin"; System.out.println(fn);
}
output: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at treehouse.Chechk.main(Chechk.java:10) Jafrin
