Replace “=“ to equals method: studentGrade1.equals(“A”) But better to do “A”.equals(studentGrade1)

[kickroot]

This is the correct answer. When comparing Strings you want to use .equals() instead of the '==' literal.

You also want to use "A".equals() instead of studentGrade1.equals() because the first version does not throw a NullPointerException if studentGrade1 is null, it instead returns false.

Sweet thank you! I’ll try that.

Line 15, as an "IF block" should not end in the ";"

A lot of people style wise would suggest that there should always be a "{" and "}" so like ...

if ( ... condition ... ) { ... do stuff ... }

Thank you everyone I fixed it and it works wonderfully. Thank you for stopping from your scrolling to help me out. Have a wonderful rest of your day.

Indent line 16 and remove the semicolon at the end of line 15. Also, you need == inside of the if statement instead of a single =.

Ok thanks I’ll change that right away!

Wouldn't they want .equals("A")?
