It should be returning a String; however, I don't think you can directly
compare string objects using '==' in Java, since technically, the 'name' object
and the '"C"' object are two distinct things and therefore never equal. Try
replacing the comparison with something like:
if (name.equals("C")) ....
This way you use the 'equals' method of the String class, which does the
comparison properly.
