Hi everyone, I'm new here and hope you all don't mind me asking this. I have just started my first Java class, the only other one I have taken so far was for writing pseudocodes (not fun) I just want to make sure I'm doing this right and wanted to ask some experts. I do see there are tutorials on here and I will definitely take advantage of those, please don't think I'm asking you to do my homework for me, I do have part of it done, just unsure on if it's right. I'll get there but need help on the way. Thank You in advance!

This is my assignment, not sure if I'm doing it right!!



The first line should display the following text: "Hi, my name is [insert your name]."

The second line should display the following text: "I was born in [insert your birth place].








This is what I have, how do I get the I was born in part in?



1 // My name is.java

2 // Printing multiple lines in a dialog box.

3

4 public class My name is

5 {

6 // main method begins execution of Java application

7 public static void main( String args[] )

8 {

9 System.out.printf( "%s\n%s\n",

10 "My name is", "Cassie!" )

11

12 } // end method main

13

14 } // end class My name is

Well, one problem and one recommendation.

Problem: Your class name cannot contain white space. Meaning "My name is" is invalid. It needs to be something like "MyNameIs" or "My_name_is"

Recommendation: I prefer to use System.out.println("Hello my name is Cassie!"); rather than your System.out.printf(...)

Thank You, I actually ended up doing it completely different but still don't know if I did it right. This is how I did it.....

String temp1 = "My name is";
String temp2 = "Cassie";
String temp3 = "I was born in";
String temp4 = "Flint";
System.out.printf("%s %s \n",temp1,temp2);
System.out.printf("%s %s \n",temp3,temp4);
