    class, interface, or enum expected
    Check that all the { and } are properly paired.
    Copy and paste here the full text of the first few error messages that show where they occur in the source code.


    Please edit your post and wrap your code with
    [code=java]
    <YOUR CODE HERE>
    [/code]
    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    I have managed to fix some things, so i only have 16 errors now. The code in the first post in also updated. I think there still might be some very simple errors like a missing ")" or something. But am I missing any import packages, or something of that sort?

    here are all the errors:

    What is the 6 doing there?

    Check that all "s are in pairs. One before and one after the String literal: "The literal"


    Suggestion for future programs. Compile more often. Don't wait so long before compiling that you get so many errors.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    We have marked where the errors seems to occur, they are all located at the ending of the code.

    We are desperate and BIG NOOBS! =P Can someone give us the answer to what is wrong? All help is highly appreciated =D

    Please copy and post the full text of the error messages.

    We have marked where the errors seems to occur
    How did you mark it?
    Something like: //<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< HERE IS ERROR<<<<<
    that is very easy to see and find.

    The compiler has found code past the end of the class definition (past its ending }) that is not one of these:
    class, interface, or enum

    Check that the code after the } ending the class's definition is correctly located. That code should probably be inside the one and only class definition you have. If there is only one class, move the } that ends the class's definition to the end of the source.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
