Any advice on how I shoud fix my code?

I still don't get it. anyway, thanks for the comment. perhaps somebody else will give advice about this task.

in line 11, you have a = 5; in line 14, c = a+d; in line 15, b = " is better than " but the compiler does not know what type of data a,c and b are holding, you need to define it int a int c String b try going through the lessons again

What about this? Still got an error package com.codegym.task.task01.task0125; /* The great purge */ public class Solution { public static void main(String[] args) { // String s = "15"; int a 5; // int z = 18; // int d = 18; int c = a + d; String b = "is better than"; System.out.println(a + b + c); } }

its not int a 5, its int a=5 int c = a + d; here d is not defined before using it

I've got what you talked about int a=5 but what about d? I mean c=a+d. Should i simply delete it and write c=a. I don't get it? Sorry for such stupid questions but I'll appreciate any kind of advice here. /* The great purge */ public class Solution { public static void main(String[] args) { // String s = "15"; int a = 5; // int z = 18; // int d = 18; int c = a + d; String b = "is better than"; System.out.println(a + b + c); } }

you cannot change any line of code, you can only comment it out. since d is being used in the declaration of c, you cannot comment out int d = 18 because you need it String s and int z are the two variables not being used, you can comment those lines

Thanks for your assistance Khurram, the problem is solved.
