what to do

I wrote correctly

IO.java
// I have imported java.io.Console for you.  It is a variable called console.
String firstName=console.readLine("what is your first name  ");
String lastName=console.readLine("what is your last name  ");
console.printf("\n %s %s is my name", firstName);
console.printf("\n First name:%s ", firstName);
console.printf("\n %s %s is my name", lastName);
console.printf("\n Last name:%s", lastName);

Hi there,

The challenge is expecting specific output - your code is fine, there's just too much output!

After receiving user input, just add this for the first name, and the same for the last name:

console.printf("First name: %s", firstName);

Make sense?

Steve.
