Yes - that all looks fine. Very strange.

I'll have a think about that - I'm not sure what to suggest!

Have you tried to rebuild / clean your project?

For Windows/Linux, you can go to File -> Settings -> Editor -> Auto Import -> Java and make the following changes:

change Insert imports on paste value to All

markAdd unambigious imports on the fly option as checked

On a Mac, do the same thing in Android Studio -> Preferences

Have you defined a class called FactBook? You may need to organise your imports to include that first. Make sure your class is called that exactly.
