Is this your entire code block? If so, try removing the closing curly brace, as there doesn't seem to be a need for it.
This compile-time error means that the compiler was expecting to see more source code when it got to the end of the file. This is almost always because of one or more missing closing braces. Typically, you'll receive this sort of error if you forget to end a while loop or if/else statement. But you don't appear to have an opening curly brace in the first place.
console.printf("Hello, my name is James");
console.printf("James is learning to write Java");

Courses Plus Student 394 PointsThanks Jacob, it turns out I had deleted a closed curly bracket from a lower line, once I added this in it worked fine. Thanks for the quick help!
