Put your code in a method   Try this   public class MyClass       public static void main String   args            UserInput input   new UserInput            input name              Then  run  the class from your IDE

You can t call methods outside a method  Code like this cannot float around in the class   You need something like   public class MyClass      UserInput input   new UserInput       public void foo           input name            or inside a constructor   public class MyClass      UserInput input   new UserInput       public MyClass           input name

input name   needs to be inside a function  classes contain declarations  not random code

Try it like this instead  move your myclass items inside a main method       class UserInput         public void name             System out println  This is a test                        public class MyClass            public static void main  String args                           UserInput input   new UserInput                input name
