Switch Statement Help
Alrighty, so I have to do this assignment for my Java course, using a switch statement. The assignment is to have the user enter a number (1-5), and have the corresponding line of a poem be displayed. So if the user entered 1, "One two, buckle your shoe" would be displayed. This is what I have and it's giving me a huge problem:

Code:
import java.util.Scanner; public class Poem { public static void main(String[] args); Scanner kboard = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Enter a number 1-5 (or 0 to quit)."); int n = kboard.nextLine(); switch (n) { case 1: System.out.println("One two, buckle your shoe."); break; case 2: System.out.println("Three four, shut the door."); break; case 3: System.out.println("Five six, pick up sticks."); break; case 4: System.out.println("Seven eight, lay them straight."); break; case 5: System.out.println("Nine ten, a big fat hen."); break; default: System.out.println("Goodbye."); break; } } }
This is giving me a HUGE string of errors. (Something like 45). I'm wracking my brain here trying to figure this out. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
