You forgot to add comma's after each array. So I guess thats what you'd call a syntax error? B-)

This is what your code currently looks like:

int[][] scoreCards = {
 // Ben's
{1, 2, 4, 2, 6, 5, 4, 3, 3, 2, 5, 7, 2, 7, 8, 4, 3, 2}
// Alena's
{2, 3, 5, 1, 1, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 4, 1, 3, 3, 2, 6, 3, 2}
// Pasan's
{4, 4, 2, 1, 2, 2, 1, 4, 2, 2, 2, 3, 2, 5, 8, 1, 2, 2}
};

This is what your code should look like with propper syntax:

int[][] scoreCards = {
 // Ben's
{1, 2, 4, 2, 6, 5, 4, 3, 3, 2, 5, 7, 2, 7, 8, 4, 3, 2},
// Alena's
{2, 3, 5, 1, 1, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 4, 1, 3, 3, 2, 6, 3, 2},
// Pasan's
{4, 4, 2, 1, 2, 2, 1, 4, 2, 2, 2, 3, 2, 5, 8, 1, 2, 2}
};

I know i'm very late to the problem, but perhaps this will save someone else in the future ¯_(ツ)_/¯
