Cannot find the Symbol

Question

my problem is:cannot find symbol variable coefsAndDegs ; Line 54
please help me
import java.util.*;

     private int coefficient;
     private int degree;
     public Term(int coefficient, int degree) {
          this.coefficient = coefficient;
          this.degree = degree;
     public int getCoefficient() {
          return coefficient;
     public int getDegree() {
          return degree;
public class Polynomial {
    private char polyVar;
    private ArrayList<Term> terms;
    public void Polynomial(char polyVar, int ... coefsAndDegs) {
         Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
         String polies = kb.nextLine();
          polyVar = polies.charAt(0);
         if (polyVar < 'a' || polyVar > 'z') {
              throw new IllegalArgumentException("Invalid polynomial variable.");
         } else {
              this.polyVar = polyVar;
         // check that coefsAndDegs are provided in pairs..
         if (coefsAndDegs.length % 2 != 0) {
              throw new IllegalArgumentException("Coefficients and Degrees must be provided in pairs.");
         } else {
              terms = new ArrayList<Term>();
              for (int i = 0; i < coefsAndDegs.length / 2; i++) {
                   Term term = new Term(coefsAndDegs[i * 2], coefsAndDegs[i * 2 + 1]);
                   terms.add(term);
    public void main(String[] args){
     Polynomial main = new Polynomial();
    Polynomial(polyVar, coefsAndDegs);          
}

What do you expect this to do:
public void main(String[] args){
     Polynomial main = new Polynomial();
     Polynomial(polyVar, coefsAndDegs);          
          }Or this:
if (polyVar < ' || polyVar > 'z')
