Question

Im having trouble with a simple hello world program lol! Im hoping someone can shed some light on this.

So the error im receiving is the following:

$         


        

Answer 1

Problem is that your method does not take String array as a argument. Use following signature instead:

public static void main(String[] argv)

or

public static void main(String argv[])

Other valid option is:

public static void main(String ... argv)

In Java Language Specification this is told as follows:

The method main must be declared public, static, and void. It must specify a formal parameter (§8.4.1) whose declared type is array of String.
