IM UNABLE TO RUN THE CODE IN VS CODE, IT KEEPS SAYING :
Error: Could not find or load main class OOPSBannerApp
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: OOPSBannerApp

THIS IS WHAT I HAVE TO DO AS GIVEN IN PDF:
"Please write the full code for OOPSBannerApp.java that does the following:
Defines a String 1D array with a size of 7 to hold the banner lines.
Populates each index of the array using the String.join() method to construct the character patterns for 'OOPS'.
Uses an enhanced for-loop (for-each) to iterate through the array and print each line sequentially.
Ensure the visual output matches the 7-line format with 9-character width per character.
+4"

haughty moon How do you run the application? Which files are present?

only one file which is the bannerapp.java

#

i ran it using the debug and run command

haughty moon Feb 22, 2026, 5:44 PM

#

What is the content of the file?

#

For public classes, the class name must match the file name (but without the .java)

#

Did you not open a folder in VSC?

peak ocean Feb 22, 2026, 5:45 PM

#

How do I do that?

#

🥲

haughty moon Feb 22, 2026, 5:46 PM

#

ok

#

so normally, you have a Java project with your files in them

#

I think if you click on the file selection thing in VSC, you can create a Java project there

peak ocean Feb 22, 2026, 5:47 PM

#

i had clicked on new file

#

and it showed the search bar terminal
so then i chose java
it opened the file explorer to save file
then named it as OOPSBannerApp

#

is this what youre talking about?

haughty moon Feb 22, 2026, 5:48 PM

#

no

#

There should be an option to create a Java project

#

I think

#

I don't use VSC

peak ocean Feb 22, 2026, 5:49 PM

#

ohh

#

haughty moon Feb 22, 2026, 5:50 PM

#

I think you can press Ctrl+P and type >Java Project to get a Create Java Project option

peak ocean Feb 22, 2026, 5:55 PM

#

#

and this is what i got

peak ocean Feb 22, 2026, 5:56 PM

haughty moon Feb 22, 2026, 5:57 PM

haughty moon Feb 22, 2026, 5:57 PM

#

peak ocean Feb 22, 2026, 6:00 PM

#

haughty moon Feb 22, 2026, 6:05 PM

peak ocean Feb 22, 2026, 6:08 PM

#

haughty moon Feb 22, 2026, 6:09 PM

#

You can create the Java file in the src folder

peak ocean Feb 22, 2026, 6:09 PM

#

haughty moon Feb 22, 2026, 6:10 PM

#

You can add the existing file next to it and probably also delete App.java

peak ocean Feb 22, 2026, 6:12 PM

#
