2,039 PointsQuestion of the Day - Java Basics. Add an if statement. Conditional basics.
My code, below, needs a little assistance. I do as well. It has been a while since I have been working in my treehouse studies, so I admit I am a bit dull on the subject. Any guidance would be appreciated. My objective is to add an if statement if the people that are ready is less than 4, and then print "Your table is ready"; from the directions:
Add an if statement to see if there are less than 4 people. Then write out to the console, βYour table is readyβ
Errors that I receive are: JavaTester.java:126: error: ';' expected If numberOfPeople < 4; ^ JavaTester.java:126: error: illegal start of type If numberOfPeople < 4; ^ JavaTester.java:126: error: illegal start of expression If numberOfPeople < 4; ^ JavaTester.java:126: error: ';' expected If numberOfPeople < 4; ^ JavaTester.java:127: error: illegal start of expression console.printf("Your table is ready"); ^ JavaTester.java:127: error: ';' expected console.printf("Your table is ready"); ^ 6 errors
Any assistance and guidance will be greatly appreciated, thank you all. V/r Todd Foreman

2,039 PointsI believe I have answered my own question. The fog in my brain lifted.
Here is what I got, and it worked.
int numberOfPeople = 3;
if (numberOfPeople < 4) {
console.printf("Your table is ready");
}
Thank you, sorry if I interrupted.
