Now in the main method of Display.java, instantiate a new BlogPost. Use System.out.printf to print out "This is a blog post: %s" and pass in the newly created BlogsPot object to replace the string formatter.
package com.example;
public BlogPost{
}
import com.example.BlogPost;
public class Display {
public static void main(String[] args) {
BlogPost blogpost = new BlogPost();
System.out.printf("This is a blog post: %s %n", blogPost);
}
}

7,400 PointsHey again! I noticed now that, in you 'BlogPost.java' file you forgot to write the keyword 'class' after 'public'. My finished code for this challenge looks like this, and it compiled;
BlogPost.java:
package com.example;
public class BlogPost
{
}
Display.java:
import com.example.BlogPost;
public class Display {
public static void main(String[] args) {
BlogPost blogPost = new BlogPost();
System.out.printf("This is a blog post: %s %n", blogPost);
}
}
Hope that helped!

7,400 PointsWhen you create an object of the class 'BlogPost', you name it 'blogpost';
BlogPost blogpost = new BlogPost();
And then when you try to pass it into the 'printf' method, you try to pass in an object called 'blogPost' (with a capital 'P');
System.out.printf("This is a blog post: %s %n", blogPost);
Either change the name of the object to have a capital 'P', or simply pass in 'blogpost' in the 'printf' method. Hope that helped you, and if it did please vote this to be the best answer!
