Python Development Techdegree Graduate 38,668 PointsHi, there are a few things that need fixing.
console.printf("First name: %s", firstName);
- You need to provide the 'console' object before the 'printf' method call.
- You need to pass the string you want that method to print within parentheses.
- You have a typo in 'First Name'.
- You need to put %s in your string so that it knows where to display the contents of firstName
