        String q1;

System.out.println("whats my name?");
        q1 = inp123.nextLine();
        if (q1=="matt"){
            System.out.print("Correct that is my name!");
        }else{
            System.out.println("Incorrect");
            score = score + 1;
            System.out.print("Your score is: ");
