Try using a more descriptive title than "Please Help"
Please use code tags when posting source code snippets
Explain what you've tried, and how it failed (i.e. Did you try running it from the command line? What did you type, exactly? What error message did it tell you?)
All that said, you appear to have at least two syntactical errors: a misspelled function definition, and a missing closing quote.
Please use code-tags when posting code and/or data. What exactly do you mean? After correction of several errors it runs fine. Or are you not able to compile it? Keep in mind that Java also requires that the filenames have to follow this naming pattern:
classname.java
P.S.: The corrected version:
Code:
public class Hello {
public static void main(String[] args){
String name;
name= "Erica";
System.out.println("hello" +name+ "!");
}
}
