package com.example;

public class BlogPost(){
}
Display.java 
import com.example.BlogPost;
public class Display {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    // Your code here...
    BlogPost blog = new BlogPost();

    System.out.printf("This is a blog post: %s",blog);

Hello,

Remove the parentheses on your BlogPost class declaration:

Correct:

public class BlogPost {
}

Incorrect:

public class BlogPost(){
}
