    Default Cannot get to compile

    This one works just fine

    public class Brand
    {
    	private String name;
    	private String city;
     
    	public Brand()
    	{
    		setName("");
    		setCity("");
    	}
     
    	public Brand(String n, String c)
    	{
    		setName(n);
    		setCity(c);
    	}
     
    	//SETS
     
    	public void setName(String name)
    	{
    		this.name = name;
    	}
     
    	public void setCity(String city)
    	{
    		this.city = city;
    	}
     
    	//GETS
     
    	public String getName()
    	{
    		return name;
    	}
     
    	public String getCity()
    	{
    		return city;
    	}
     
    	public String toString()
    	{
    		return("Name" + name + "City" + city);
    	}
    }

    This is the one that wont compile and I'm not sure what I have done wrong, everything looks the same as I have it in my notes.

    public class Computer
    {
    	private Brand brand;
    	private double price;
    	private int quantity;
    	private double totalCharge;
     
    	public Computer()
    	{
    		setBrand(new Brand());
    		setPrice(0.0);
    		setQuantity(0);
    		setTotalCharge(0.0);
    	}
     
    	public Computer(String n, String c, double p, int q, double tc)
    	{
    		setBrand(new Brand(n, c));
    		setPrice(p);
    		setQuantity(q);
    		setTotalCharge(tc);
    	}
     
     
    	//SETS
     
    	public void setPrice(double price)
    	{
    		this.price = price;
    	}
     
    	public void setQuantity(int quantity)
    	{
    		this.quantity = quantity;
    	}
     
    	public void setTotalCharge(double totalCharge)
    	{
    		this.totalCharge = totalCharge;
    	}
     
    	//GETS
     
    	public double getPrice()
    	{
    		return price;
    	}
     
    	public int getQuantity()
    	{
    		return quantity;
    	}
     
    	public double getTotalCharge()
    	{
    		return totalCharge;
    	}
     
    	public String toString()
    	{
    		return(brand.toString() + "Price" + price + "Quantity" + quantity + "Toatl Charge" + totalCharge);
    	}
    }

    Any help would be great, thanks in advance.

    Nothing to do with being new to Java. It is the same for any language. You cannot call a method/function/procedure/sub-routine that does not exist.
