First off, the challenge asks you to make a string variable named firstName and assign the string returned from the Console.ReadLine() function. Then we're going to write to the screen with Console.WriteLine() and use concatenation to write the contents of the firstName variable plus the word " rocks!". Note the leading space before rocks. Here's my code. Hope it clears things up!

string firstName = Console.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine(firstName + " rocks!");
