874 Pointserror ' ; ' expected dispenser.getCharacterName());
It seems that everything is exactly as the tutorial, but I'm receiving an error. Could someone please give me some advise? :) Thanks
public class Example {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Your amazing code goes here...
System.out.println("We are a making a new Pez Dispenser.");
PezDispenser dispenser = new PezDispenser ("Donatello");
System.out.printf("The dispenser character is %s\n,
dispenser.getCharacterName());
}
}

21,073 PointsYou are almost right, just put the a quotation mark at the end of the string "part" of the System.out.printf. Like this:
public class Example {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Your amazing code goes here...
System.out.println("We are a making a new Pez Dispenser.");
PezDispenser dispenser = new PezDispenser("Donatello");
System.out.printf("The dispenser character is %s\n, <------- right here
dispenser.getCharacterName());
}
}
System.out.printf("The dispenser character is %s\n", <------- like this
dispenser.getCharacterName());
I hope that helps a little bit
