dispenser.load(); symbol not found

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("Yoda");
  System.out.printf("The dispenser character is %s\n",
                    dispenser.getCharacterName());

  if(dispenser.isEmpty()){
    System.out.println("It is currently empty");
  }

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

  \\the prob exists right here....does not identify the symbol
      dispenser.load();

  if(!dispenser.isEmpty()){
  System.out.println("It is no longer empty");
  }

}

}

Hello, it looks like you actually didn't define the method, so the compiler is telling that it can't find it, I can see that you "System.out.println("Loading...")" but you don't have this inside a method like your isEmtpy() method.

Try something like.

public void load() {
  System.out.println("Loading...")
}

This should define the method and allow you to call it.

Thanks hope this helps.
