Getting an Error while Compiling the Java program

[Rob Dizzle]

I am getting an Error while compiling the following file written in Java.

1. class car_5_1_1
{
String licensePlate; // e.g. "96 C 1"
double speed; // in mph
double maxSpeed; // in mph
}

2. class Example_5_1_1
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Car_5_1_1 c;
c = new Car_5_1_1() ;
}
}

While compiling the car file, I am not getting any error. But when I try to compile the Example file I am getting the 2 errors. I tried a lot but cannot resolve my problem. Please help me by telling where I went wrong.!!

I would like to suggest you to change the following things from the Example file:
Your Actual Code is
Car_5_1_1 c;
c = new Car_5_1_1();
Try to change this coding to
car_5_1_1 c;
c = new car_5_1_1();
Hope that changing the case will solve your problem. By doing this you will not get the error while Compiling the Java program.

If doing the changes told by 'Zecho' is not making any changes then try to change the code as below :
Your actual code of class file :
class car_5_1_1
{
String licensePlate; // e.g. "96 C 1"
double speed; // in mph
double maxSpeed; // in mph
}

do the following changes :
class Car_5_1_1
{
String licensePlate; // e.g. "96 C 1"
double speed; // in mph
double maxSpeed; // in mph
}
Also don't forget to rename the file to Car_5_1_1.java before compiling it.

According to me the error that you are getting is due to not using the constructor. The lack of the constructor may cause this problem. So try to use the following coding :

class car_5_1_1
{
String licensePlate; // e.g. "96 C 1"
double speed; // in mph
double maxSpeed; // in mph
public car_5_1_1{}
}

Hope that your error will get resolved after using the constructor.

In your coding you need to make your "main" class public and this is the main cause of the problem. You can do the changes like "class Example_5_1_1" to the "public class Example_5_1_1". Also the class names are case sensitive. I made some changes I was able to compile the both files without any error.

class Car_5_1_1
{
String licensePlate; // e.g. "96 C 1"
double speed; // in mph
double maxSpeed; // in mph
}

public class Example_5_1_1
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Car_5_1_1 c;
c = new Car_5_1_1() ;
}
}
