Question: Declare another variable, naming this one the camel-cased version of "last name". Use console.readLine to store the user's last name into this new variable.
My ans: String lastName = console.readLine("lastName");
What it keeps saying "task 1 no longer passing even after I answered it correctly"
// I have imported java.io.Console for you. It is a variable called console.
String lastName = console.readLine("lastName");

Task 1 asked you to prompt the user for a first name, if you add that code back like this:
// I have imported java.io.Console for you. It is a variable called console.
String firstName = console.readLine("firstName"); // Code from task 1
String lastName = console.readLine("lastName");
Then your code will pass task 2.

475 PointsThank you for your reply, but that does not seem to be the issue. I am keeping task one and still getting the same message.

28,558 PointsThat's odd. I did test the code I posted before making my reply and the challenge did accept it. You could try restarting the challenge (using the "Restart" button) and then just copy and pasting in the code I posted above. If there is some sort of bug going on that usually fixes things.

475 PointsThank you, for your willingness to help. Actually, the problem was that I was supposed to keep task one the console when doing task 2.
