    Default Java won't compile

    I know nothing of Java, however, I've got a class that demands it, and I'm stuck.

    I got this code by using Visual Paradigm to convert this from UML to code. I changed what I could based on what we've learned in class, but it won't compile. It is supposed to compile but not execute. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

    I think next week we move on to XML, thank goodness.

    Please copy the full text of the error messages and paste it here.
    Also paste the code here and be sure to wrap your code with code tags:
    [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.
