Error: Identifier Expected

[vickyv200]

It applies to line 20.

When I put main after void, it gives me another error that says method main already defined in class (____) What can I put after void to stop the compile error and make it so the lines after it show up?
//NAME
//CLASS
//SEMESTER
//PROJECT NAME

public class mynameincode{

public static void main(String[]args) {
PrinHeading();
}

public static void PrinHeading () {

System.out.println ("name");
System.out.println ("Class");
System.out.println ("semester");
System.out.println ("project name");
}

public static void main (String[]args) {

System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");

}

}

Your class has duplicate method definitions (eg main). Create unique method names/definitions

Ok, I changed the second main to secondary, now it compiles, but the lines after it will not print. Just the print heading.
So it looks like

name
Class
Semester
project name

But the lines after that won't print.

What "lines after" are you talking about? Your code as written will only print what you see. Perhaps you should post your updated code and explain what you're trying to do.

Please post your code here. You're asking for free advice, so please try to make it as easy as possible to help you. Also again, please let us know what you expect the output to be.

Alright I'm not sure what the problem is with the actual java file.
I expect the output to be 7 lines of the word garbage.

//NAME
//CLASS
//SEMESTER
//PROJECT NAME

public class boo{

public static void main(String[]args) {
PrinHeading();
}

public static void PrinHeading () {

System.out.println ("name");
System.out.println ("Class");
System.out.println ("semester");
System.out.println ("project name");
}

public static void secondary (String[]args) {
//Everything after this won't show up, only the print heading.

System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");
System.out.println("garbage");

}

}

Walk through each line of your program as if it were running to get the flow of its logic, starting with the main method. You're asking why the code in the secondary method never gets called. Ask yourself as you're waking through your code -- "where do I call this method?"

If I call it before the print heading doesn't show up.

We can't see your code here, or your output, so what does "If I call it before the print heading doesn't show up" mean?
