.class expected error message

Question about the task

Resolved

my code is fine but the compiler keeps giving me an error code pointing at int a requiring a .class. please how do I fix this

Write a function that computes the minimum of four numbers.
The function min(a, b, c, d) should use (call) the function min(a, b)

Hint:
You need to write the body of the two existing min functions.

Requirements:

The program should display text on the screen.
The min methods should not display text on the screen.
The main method should call min(a, b) and min(a, b, c, d).
The main method should display the result of the min methods. Each time, on a new line.
The min(a, b) method must return the minimum of the numbers a and b.
The min(a, b, c, d) method must use the min(a, b) method.
The min(a, b, c, d) method must return the minimum of the numbers a, b, c, and d.
