Something to do with the configuration of Java I think. I googled it and got this: https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/162535/

Regardless of those two lines, the code should work for you.

First you have to compile the java file by doing the following in the terminal:

javac TreeStory.java

Then this will create the TreeStory.class file which then you can use this inside the terminal to run the program:

java TreeStory
