if you want to connect with oracle database

open sql prompt
connect with sysdba for XE- conn / as sysdba for IE- conn sys as sysdba
then start up database by below command startup;

once it get start means you can access oracle database now. if you want connect another user you can write conn username/password e.g. conn scott/tiger; it will show connected........

As David Aldridge explained  your parentheses should start right after the sqlplus command  so it should be   sqlplus  test test  DESCRIPTION  ADDRESS LIST  ADDRESS  PROTOCOL TCP  HOST hostname com   PORT 1521    CONNECT DATA  SID mysid

tnsping xe --if you have installed express edition tnsping orcl --or if you have installed enterprise or standard edition then try to run --if you get a response with your description then you will write the below command sqlplus  --this will prompt for user hr --user that you have created or use system password --inputted at the time of user creation for hr  or put the password given at the time of setup for system user hope this will connect if db run at your localhost  --if db host in a remote host then you must use tns name for our example orcl or xe try this to connect remote hr pass    orcl or hr pass    xe --based on what edition you have installed
