jshell help

Every time I try to follow along with jshell I always get stuck when trying to call pd.isEmpty(); ----> I'm making sure to save my work still not sure what the problem is. My error is "cannot find symbol" and it underlines the whole thing.

Make sure you've completed each of these steps:

1) Edit PezDispenser.java, implement isEmpty method. 2) in jshell you opened the java file

/open PezDispenser.java

3) instantiate PezDispenser:

PezDispenser pd = new PezDispenser("Yoda");

4) test isEmpty method:

pd.isEmpty();
