this is my code

[latent dust]

u forgot the main method

u cant write code like that outside of methods

public static void main(String[] args) {...}

this guy

[olive marten]

so like this?

[latent dust]

yeah now it would work. run it, try it out 🙂

[olive marten]

yeah it worked thanks

but what exactly dose String[] args mean

[latent dust]

its for the program to take command line arguments. have u run commands in ur terminal already before?

maybe sth like cd foo

or grep blabla

[olive marten]

no

[latent dust]

okay. well its that

lets say u made a program called Foo.java

then someone could run it from command line and pass arguments

java Foo.java Hello Test 123

ud receive an array of strings Hello, Test and 123 then

[olive marten]

oh okay

thanks
