Hi Fritz Antoine Vergara

This is explained by Craig in the Teacher's Notes for the first video for this course. It's always good to make sure and read the Teacher's notes attached to every video.
Essentially, that message has no bearing on the course or code. It is simply a part of the structure of the Java Workspaces on Treehouse and has to do with behind-the-scenes memory allocation.

If your code should have output something, then there could be an error with your code and you will need to share that, but if your code had no output, then it's all good as the stated message is not an error.
