Simple error help

[Wisty]

I am following an online course on the basics of java. right now im trying to learn Scanner class works.
i have my code written exactly as it says in the example, but i am getting error messages.

-Syntax error on token "importjava", package expected before this token
-The import java.util.Scanner conflicts with a type defined in the same file
-The constructor Scanner (InputStream) is undefined
-The method next() is undefined for the type Scanner
-Line breakpoint:Scanner [line:14] - main(string[])


import java.util.Scanner;

public class Scanner {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Scanner user_input = new Scanner(System.in);
String First_name;
System.out.print("enter your first name :");

First_name = user_input.next();
String Family_name;
System.out.print("enter your family name :");

String Full_name;
Full_name = First_name + " " + Family_name;

System.out.println("You are" + Full_name);
}

}

im sure the problem is very easy to solve, but i am just too new to this to figure it out. i may have missed something in the example...but i have looked it over several times and cant find anything

I think you have some other problems too, but your first issue is this line:


public class Scanner {

You named your class the same as the one your trying to import. Try giving it a different name.

thanks. i changed the class name and the rest pretty much solved itself from there. i will be more careful with what i name my class files now.
