TreeStory.java clearing error

I used the text: clear && javac TreeStory.java && java TreeStory to clear it and got the errors below. Please advise where I went wrong. It appears my code is spot on yet something is amiss.

Console console = System.console(); /* Some terms: noun - Person, place or thing verb - An action adjective - A description used to modify or describe a noun Enter your amazing code here! */ String name = console.readLine("Enter your name: "); String adjective = console.readLine("Enter an adjective: "); console.printf("%s is very %s", name, adjective); } 

}

if you provide a workspace snapshot, maybe someone can debug it for you.

Did you copy/paste the actual command you used? It looks like you may have tried to run Treestory (with a lowercase s) rather than TreeStory. If you compiled TreeStory but tried to run Treestory, java won't be able to find it:

Error: Could not find or load main class Treestory
