Now in the main method of Display.java, instantiate a new BlogPost.

Now in the main method of Display.java, instantiate a new BlogPost. Use System.out.printf to print out "This is a blog post: %s" and pass in the newly created BlogPost object to replace the string formatter..

com/example/BlogPost.java 
package com.example;
public class BlogPost(){
}
  public static void main (String[]args){
  }
Display.java 
import com.example.blogPost;
public class Display {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
  BlogPost blogPost= new  BlogPost();
  System.out.printf("This is a blog post: %s %n",blogPost);

    // Your code here...
}

}

also you don't have to type main method in BlogPost.java so remove this line

BlogPost.java 
  public static void main (String[]args){
  }

import com.example.BlogPost; public class Display { public static void main(String[] args) {

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