    Default Learning OOP; Gettin error messages i cant explain.

    This is a "homework" of self-paid course of Java basics.

    Mission is to create a class Tulostaja, which ask's two integers and then calls method Summa() from a class Laskin. The code where i need to create this class is next.
    At first, i thought the problem was in line import java.util.Scanner; and i switched it to import java.util.*;, but that did not solve the problem.
     
    import java.util.Scanner;
     
     
    public class OlioidenToimintoja {
        public static void main(String args[]) {
            Tulostaja olio = new Tulostaja();
            olio.Tulosta();
        }
    }
     
     
    //  Here comes my piece of code.
     
     
    class Laskin {
        static int Summa(int eka, int toka) {
            int summa = eka + toka;
            return summa;
        }
    }

    And here is the code i have tried (with multiple variations).

    class Tulostaja {
    	public void Tulostaja(){
    		int eka;
    		int toka;
    		int kolmas;
    	}
    	// muuttujat
    	int eka, toka, kolmas;
     
    	// Luetaan kokonaisluvut
    	Scanner lukija = new Scanner(System.in);
    	System.out.print("Syötä ensimmäinen luku: ");
    	eka = lukija.NextInt();
    	System.out.print("Syötä toinen luku: ");
    	toka = lukija.nextInt();
     
    	// Kutsutaan laskinta
    	kolmas = Laskin.Summa(eka, toka);
    	System.out.print("Lukujen summa: " + kolmas);
    }

    Here is the error messages from javac.

    The compiler is confused because it found statements that should be inside of a method that were not in a method.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
