The console gives the same output every time .. even though i save the code..

What am I doing wrong here? Only the "hello my name is jack " is shown in the console, nothing else .. why? 

import java.io.Console;

public class Introductions {  
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Console console = System.console();
        // Welcome to the Introductions program!  Your code goes below here
       String firstName="jack";
            //this is an example of CamelCasing
            console.printf("hello my name is jack %s\n", firstName);
            console.printf("%s is learning how to write java\n",firstName);
  }
}

Hi Jack

If you have added second console statement later , have you recompiled the file again after saving it?
