This Code worked on a separate class but does not work on another class

this one is working on: public class Table {

public int player() {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
p = in.nextInt();
return p;
}

but does not work on another class but under main:

public static void main (String[] args){

Please help as this puzzles me as I am very new in JAVA ... thank you in advance

Please post the full text of the error messages and the full code that is causing them.

Are you trying to copy the code from the method player() into method main()
If so, here is the answer: methods having void type cannot return any values, the return statement needs to be replaced with something meaningful.

@ ranjithfs1:
I am trying to copy the whole method from another class to main. Even if I remove the return there is still error.
"Multiple markers at this line
- Syntax error on token(s), misplaced construct(s)
- Syntax error on token "int", @ expected.

@Norm: That is the whole code already.
