Error from a beginners tutorial

[freelance84]

Appologies in advance for printing blocks of code. I am right at the beginning of learning Java and have hit a bump with a tutorial scripts...

This is the tutorial page i am learning from:
Introduction to Java Access Modifiers | Java Beginner

Could somebody possible assist...?

I am have copied and understand the 1st example name 'SubclassInSamePackage'.
I have compiled the bytecode.

However when i try and run the class i get the following error:

D:\WORK\Java>java SubclassInSamePackage
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: SubclassInSam

Could not find the main class: SubclassInSamePackage. Program will exit

This is the code from the tutorial:

package pckage1;

class BaseClass {
    public int x = 10;      
    private int y = 10;
    protected int z = 10;
	int a = 10;		//Implicit Default Access Modifier

	
    public int getX() {
		return x;
	}
	public void setX(int x) {
		this.x = x;
	}
	
	private int getY() {
		return y;
	}
	
	private void setY(int y) {
		this.y = y;
	}
	protected int getZ() {
		return z;
	}
	protected void setZ(int z) {
		this.z = z;
	}
	

	int getA() {
		return a;
	}
	void setA(int a) {
		this.a = a;
	}
}

public class SubclassInSamePackage extends BaseClass {
    public static void main(String args[]){
    	BaseClass rr = new BaseClass();
    	rr.z = 0;
    	SubclassInSamePackage subClassObj = new SubclassInSamePackage();
    	//Access Modifiers - Public
    	System.out.println("Value of x is : "+subClassObj.x);
    	subClassObj.setX(20);
    	System.out.println("Value of x is : "+subClassObj.x);
    	
    	//Access Modifiers - Private
//    	If we remove the comments it would result in a compilaton 
//    	error as the fields and methods being accessed are private
    	
/*    	System.out.println("Value of y is : "+subClassObj.y);
    	subClassObj.setY(20);
    	System.out.println("Value of y is : "+subClassObj.y);*/
    	
    	//Access Modifiers - Protected
    	System.out.println("Value of z is : "+subClassObj.z);
    	subClassObj.setZ(30);
    	System.out.println("Value of z is : "+subClassObj.z);
    	
    	//Access Modifiers - Default
    	System.out.println("Value of x is : "+subClassObj.a);
    	subClassObj.setA(20);
    	System.out.println("Value of x is : "+subClassObj.a);
    	
    	
    }
}

ps, i am still under 24hours of learning java. I have come from PHP/JS...etc

If anyone knows of any other guides which they think might be better suited, i would be very appreciative to know them :)

ava.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: SubclassInSamePackage
(wrong name: pckage1/SubclassInSamePackage)

Your problem is your class is in a package: pckage1.
One solution is to remove the package statement from your program and recompile.
Another solution is to create a folder with the SAME name as the package name, move your source into that folder and compile it. Then move up one level to the folder containing the folder with the class file and issue:
java <PACKAGENAME>.<CLASSNAME>
where the words in <>s is what you have named your stuff.
For example in the folder containing the pckage1 folder enter:
java pckage1.SubclassInSamePackage

ooo... thank you very much. I guess that all makes a lot of sense actually
