"Reached end of file while parsing" error

Hello,

I am entering everything like the teacher says but I receive permanently the same error:

treehouse:~/workspace$ javac Introductions.java
Introductions.java:10: error: reached end of file while parsing
}
^
1 error

This is the code written so far:

import java.io.Console;

public class Introductions {

public static void main(String[] args) {
    Console console = System.console();
    // Welcome to the Introductions program!  Your code goes below here
    console.printf("Hello, my name is Craig");
}

Thanks a million in advance for all your help, folks.

Best akin

Make sure you're not missing a closing }. There should one for the class and one for the main method.

I think you are missing a "}" in the end.
