Hi Akiva. When we call a method we use parenthesis. readLine is a method, therefore, Console.readLine(). For example, if we have Array.length, length is a property. However with String.length() it is a method. Does that help?

The answer is :

String firstName  = console.readLine();
camel case : firstName
and readLine()
