    Default syntax error in if else condition

    Dear Java users,
    I don't have computer science background but I have knowledge about programs and have been using the MatLAB for on and off project. I have knowledge about the loops and conditions basics but not familiar with the syntax errors in java.
    Trying to write a simple program using if, else if condition and it gives error on line 18 please check below:

    I will appreciate your help!

    import java.util.Scanner;

    public class PracticeIfStatement {
    public static void main(String[] args) {


    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);


    try {

    System.out.println("Enter your age:");
    int age = input.nextInt();

    if (age > 0 && age <=10 );{
    System.out.println("Your age is from 0 to 10");
    }
    //18th line (error syntax error on token)
    else if (age >=11 && age <=20){
    System.out.println("your age is from 11 to 20");
    }

    else if ( age >=20 && age <=30) {
    System.out.println("your age is from 20 to 30");
    }

    else {
    System.out.println("Your are above 30");
    }
    }
    catch(Exception e) {
    System.out.println("You can not enter Zero");
    }

    }
    }

    Which is line 18?

    Please copy the full text of the error message and paste it here. It has important info about the error.


    Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:

    [code]
    **YOUR CODE GOES HERE**
    [/code]
