Answer 1

That constructor misspells the name of the class.



Your class is

Account

not

account



Yes, your error is just that simple!

Answer 2

Java is case-sensitive. Accordingly, for a class with a given name, a constructor for that class must have the same name including the capitalization of the letters. Right now, you have a class called Account, but the constructor is called account(). This won't work. The constructor needs to be called Account() in order to match the class name.

Answer 3

The name of your constructor has to be exactly the same as the name of your class. Exactly. "Account" and "account" are not exactly the same.



All names and keywords in Java are case-sensitive.

Answer 4

Oh aha same thing happened to me u just have to delete your windows file 32.
