class
to the word bologna
. You see a red X and a red underline in Eclipse's editor:
If you click the X or hover over the red underlined word, you see the following message:
Syntax error on token "bologna", interface expected
Changing the word args
to the word malarkey
is okay. The editor doesn't display and error messages
and the program runs correctly.
If you change class ThingsILike
to public class SomeOtherWord
,
the error message says The public type SomeOtherWord must be defined in its own file.
If you change println
to display
, the error message says The method display(String) is undefined for the type PrintStream.
If you remove a pair of curly braces, the error message is Syntax error on token ")", { expected after this token or Syntax error on token "ThingsILike", { expected after this token.
If you comment out the line System.out.println("Chocolate, royalties, sleep")
using either the end-of-line or traditional commenting style, the program runs. But you see no output when you run the program.
That is, nothing much happens when you run the program.
