Question

I am writing a simple program to explain thread.

Why does it show me the below errors.
Can anyone help me please.

public class Myth extends Thread {
  public void run() {
    int val=65;
    try {
      for(int i=0;i<26;i++) {
        System.out.println((char)val);
        val++;
        sleep(500);
      }
    }
    catch(InterruptedException e) {
      System.out.println(e);
    }
    // error pops up on this bracket saying class interface or enum expected.
    // error in this line says-- illegal start of expression

    public static void main(String args[]) {
      Myth obj=new Myth();
      obj.start();
    }
  }
}

Answer 1

You have to balance the pair of opening and closing curly braces.

public class Myth extends Thread{
 public void run(){
   int val=65;
   try{
       for(int i=0;i<26;i++){
         System.out.println((char)val);
         val++;
         sleep(500);
        }
    }catch(InterruptedException e){
       System.out.println(e);
    }
 }

 public static void main(String args[]){
    Myth obj=new Myth();
    obj.start();
 }
}
