Constructors. I'm trying to get my work to compile but I'm not sure how to fix these errors

Example.java class code: public class Example {

public static void main(String[] args) {
    // Your amazing code goes here...
  System.out.println ("We are making a new Pez Dispenser."); 
        PezDispenser dispenser = new PezDispenser("Say Wouski");
        System.out.printf("The dispenser character is %s\n", dispenser.getCharacterName);
}

}

PezDispenser.java code: public class PezDispenser{ private String mCharacterName;

public PezDispenser (String characterName){
    mCharacterName = characterName;
}
public String getCharacterName();{
return mCharacterName;
}

}

Hi Sandy,

I see a typo in the getCharacterName(). Here try to remove the semicolon after getCharacterName().
