hi everyone, i'm chris and i'm just starting out with java. through my java course i am trying to create a java program that computes a series as follows: 1/2 +2/3+ ... i/i+1 up to where i = 20. it also has to display the grand total with each addition, i.e. count 1 and total = .5, count 2 = 1.1667, etc. i am comeing across an error while trying to compile it stateing that the problem is with the system is in the line system.out.println("the total at "+ count + "is" + m);, pointing at the dor between system and out. the code is as follows :

Code :

---

//* problem 5.4 page 212*//
//* christopher bruce *//
public class problem5_4 {
 
public static void main (double[] args) {
int count = 1;
double m = 0;
 
do		{
			m = m+count/(count + 1);
			system.out.println("the total at "+ count + "is" + m);
			count = count ++;
		} while (count <21);
 
	}
}

Java is case sensitive. You must spell everything with the correct case. System starts with S not s
When in doubt read the API doc:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/

does the c in class have to be capitilized to?

Depends which word you are talking about. The keyword is lowercase (I think most keywords start with lowercase)
There is a class named Class which starts with uppercase as all class names do.

Your class name: problem5_4 should be Problem5_4

thanks, now just have to figure out the class interface or enum expected faults
