Courses Plus Student 1,258 PointsError in Dr.Java
File: C:\Users\Trevor\Desktop\School\TeamTreehouse\Functional Java\lcc-java-fp-printer-1.0.3\src\main\java\com\teamtreehouse\challenges\Printer.java [line: 23] Error: Lambda expressions are allowed only at source level 1.8 or above
I have the most updated version of Java, and my compiler, Dr.Java, states that they support Java 6, 7, and 8. The challenge is simple, and I've been using Lambda expressions/operations for a while on a challenge question site which uses an online compiler, so I'm sure there isn't anything wrong with my code.

This error is suggesting that you need to set your compiler to Java 8 (or 1.8). I do recommend you use IntelliJ, but this should work.

Courses Plus Student 1,258 PointsThanks Craig!
Actually miles ahead here: watching you use IntelliJ in such a swift and succinct way persuaded me to get it yesterday!
