3,209 PointsNothing printing in my Console?
When I code anything that has console.printf("Anything");
nothing appears in the console.
I start with javac Filename.java then java filename
And still nothing will print. Sometimes I get an error < Could not find or load main class directory. >
Why is this happening?

import java.io.Console;
public class TreeStory {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Console console = System.console();
/* Some terms:
noun - Person, place or thing
verb - An action
adjective - A description used to modify or describe a noun
Enter your amazing code here!
*/
String name = console.readLine("Enter your name: ");
String adjective = console.readLine("Enter an adjective: ");
console.printf("%s is very %s", name, adjective);
}
}

Here my code:
import java.io.Console;
public class TreeStory {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Console console = System.console();
String name = console.readLine("Enter your name: ");
String adjective = console.readLine("Enter an adjective: ");
console.printf("%s is very %s", name, adjective);
}
}
And my input into terminal:
treehouse:~/workspace$ javac TreeStory.java
// and then
treehouse:~/workspace$ java TreeStory
The output is:
Enter your name: Adan
Enter an adjective: fancy
Adan is very fancy
I donΒ΄t know what I am doing different. But it works ....
Let me know if you could find the trick ....
Try to reload the workspace ...

10,365 PointsHi Adam,
have you imported a Console class? Do you have a main method .... ?
Can you give us your code, so we can look at it?
