a problem with objects

[p0o0o0ya]

Hi guys. I am new to java. I composed a program :

//: object/DemonsrateStatic
public class DemonsrateStatic{
	public static void main(String[ ] args){
		class TestClass{
			static int i;
		}
		TestClass test1= new TestClass( );
		TestClass test2= new TestClass( );
		TestClass test3= new TestClass( );
		System.out.println(TestClass.i);		
	`	test1.i++;
		System.out.println(TestClass.i);
		test2.i++;
		System.out.println(TestClass.i);
		test3.i++;
		System.out.println(TestClass.i);
		TestClass.i++;
		System.out.println(TestClass.i);		
	}
}//:~

but it doesn't work and compiler give me this error:
E8.java:11: illegal character: \96
` test1.i++;
^
1 error

what's wrong with my program?!
thanks

There's a little back-quote on that line (the caret points to it). It doesn't belong there; remove it.

kind regards,
