Hi there, my if statement condition (int < 4) seems to be producing a .class error on the <. Any idea where this - probably very basic - error crept in? Thanks in advance, Dominic
int numberOfPeople = 3;
if (int < 4); {
console.printf("Your table is ready");
}

You've also put a semi-colon after the if
condition; that needs to be removed too:
int numberOfPeople = 3;
if (numberOfPeople < 4){
console.printf("Your table is ready");
}
With that semi-colon in there, the printf
will always be executed as it is not part of the if
conditional.
int numberOfPeople = 3;
if(numberOfPeople == 4); {
console.printf("Always prints");
}
The compiler in the code challenge ignores this, however! The following with clear task 2:
int numberOfPeople = 3;
if(numberOfPeople < 4);
console.printf("Your table is ready");
And that's not correct.
Steve.

11,958 PointsIn your if statement, you should check if numberOfPeople is bigger than 4 and not the data type, int. Hope that helps.
