What is wrong with my syntax?
String response = True;
if (response.equals("True")) {
console.printf("Do you understand while loops?");
}
// I have initialized a java.io.Console for you. It is in a variable named console.
String response = True;
if (response.equals("True")) {
console.printf("Do you understand while loops?");
}

Courses Plus Student 12,508 PointsChallenge Task 1 of 3: "Prompt the user with the question 'Do you understand do while loops?' Store the result in a new 'String' variable named 'response'.
// I have initialized a java.io.Console for you. It is in a variable named console.
String response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops?");
The other two challenge tasks expand on this step.
