Java 6.0 Compiler Error
I downloaded the JDK6 from Sun's site. It compiles any other thing except if I use the printIn method. Below is the error message:
myprogram.java:3: cannot find symbol
symbol: method printIn(java.lang.String)
location: class java.io.PrintStream
System.out.printIn("my own string");
^
1 error
Pls can someone tell me what is wrong. I'm less than a month doing Java.
Thanks

The correct name of the method is println (with a lower case l as in lion).
In the future, it's a lot easier for us to see what's going on if you copy/paste short compilable piece of code we can take a look at rather than taking a screen shot.

Re: Java 6.0 Compiler Error
thanks! i just tried it and it compiled effortlessly. While reading the textbook i had mistaken the 'l' for 'I'.
