Can anyone spot the issue with my code?

Hi guys, I'm working through the Feeling Loopy with Java lesson and am following along in a separate workspace .I'm on the final video ,Branching Statements and have copied the code exactly as I see .Ive gone through the errors but can't seem to spot them.

I included my code below.Many Thanks. import java.io.Console;

public class Prizes {

public static void main(String[] args) { Console console = System.console(); String[] rsvps = Rsvps.shuffled(); int prizesGivenAway = 0; int drawingNumber = 0; }

while (prizesGivenAway < 5) {
  String winner = rsvps[drawingNumber];
  drawingNumber++;
  console.printf("Is %s present?  ", winner);
  string isHere = console.readLine();
  if (isHere.equalsIgnoreCase("no")) {
    continue;
  }

  String size = console.readLine("What is your shirt size?  ");
  prizesGivenAway++;
}

}

            drawingNumber++;
            console.printf("Is %s present?  ", winner);
            String isHere = console.readLine();
            if (isHere.equalsIgnoreCase("no")) {
                continue;
            }

            String size = console.readLine("What is your shirt size?  ");
            prizesGivenAway++;
        }
    }   
}

You just need include you loop in side you main function, and capitalize your "isHere" string type like "String". after that you should be good. Good luck :)
