Illegal start of expression in my ESP Game Methods

Question

The line public static String guessColor(Scanner keyboard) is where my errors are. The errors are as follows: illegal start of expression: at public, and at static. error: ';' expected: in between String and guessColor. error ';' expected: in between Scanner and keyboard. illegal start of expression: at ) in that line.

Answer 1

This happens because you never made the final closing bracket in the previous method. To fix it all you need to add is a closing bracket after the return statement on the recieveColor method
