As Philip stated we will need the code for your classes since it could be a number of issues. The most likely is that you made a typo somewhere, like misspelling Example at some point or some other small error like that.

I had the same issue a few minutes ago. I spell-checked both classes and then spell checked what i typed in the console, to realize i put "clear %% javac Example.java && java Example" I changed it and it worked.
