Hi…. I’ve just started learning Java this week and I have a submission due for uni tomorrow but I am struggling… lol. I cannot figure out where I’m going wrong, I’ve read over my notes and text books and watched tutorials but I don’t know where I’ve went wrong, I’m just looking for some guidance on how to fix the code. any help is appreciated.
