Apart from the fact that there some unknown methods in your cord (e.g. ParseInt), it seems that there is a strange character at the end of your file. Maybe you copy/pasted the code and it left some strange characters ? Remove the last line, and retype "}".

That's the error I was talking about. Check the name of your method (tip: Java is case-sensitive)

You shouldn't type anything. You should copy-and-paste, then you are sure you are posting real code.
