Hey,

packages you use the keyward. "package" Not import. 

package com.example;

That is how you add the package. Then once the packages is added, you can import things from it.

does the make sense?

Hello, i have the same problem..

Example.java:1: error: package com.teamtreehouse does not exist import com.teamtreehouse.Treet; ^ Example.java:6: error: cannot access Treet Treet treet = new Treet(); ^ bad source file: .\Treet.java file does not contain class Treet Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the sourcepath.
