Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 20,417 PointsI'm not sure what I am being asked to do?
I'm on challenge task 5 of 5 and I am a little confused by the instructions/question, I have added the following code to Messy.java:
import java.util.*;
public class Messy {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("one");
System.out.println("two");
System.out.println("four");
System.out.println("five");
// Please comment out this line and
/* this line as well with a hotkey that does multi-line commenting*/
List<String> numberWords = Arrays.asList("six", "seven", "eight", "nine");
for (String numberWord : numberWords) {
// Use the sout shortcut to write out numberWord;
System.out.println(numberWord);
}
}
}
one
two
four
five
six
seven
eight
nine
In my mind this should complete the task but it keeps throwing an error message, hinting towards reformatting the code. Can anyone help?

If I remember correctly, this particular challenge wants you to import Arrays
and Lists
specifically using two imports, instead of using one import with a wildcard. (i.e. import java.util.Arrays;
). It's been a while since I've worked with Java and IntelliJ, but I feel that this was something the IDE should have "cleaned-up".
The rest looks fine. :)
Nice work.
