Help, I just can't figure out this code or what to do to make it work

Question

ok, what i'm trying to do is the following: I created a class called Enrollement, in that class I put in an array of 30 objects to hold the places of 30 names that I used Scanner to bring in from a text file. Ok, that part of the code alone works fine. After that, I know want to write a function that will count the number of times each letter (a-z) appears in the first and last names in the class that are held in that array. I have been working on this for a while making changes doing a bunch of stuff but i keep getting errors with the second part that I honestly don't know how to fix or what i'm doing wrong. I am very new to Java. IF/when anyone responds, please dumb down your answers as much as possible so that I can understand what you are saying, I just have no idea what the errors mean or how to make this program work. my code is below:
import java.util.Scanner;
   import java.io.File;
    class Enrollment{
       public static void main(String [] args)throws Exception{
         Person [] name = new Person [30];
         Scanner sc = new Scanner(new File("names.txt"));
         while (sc.hasNext()){
            String lastName = sc.next();
            String firstName = sc.next();
            sc.nextLine();
            System.out.println("Name: " + firstName + " " + lastName.substring(0,lastName.length()-1));
       public int chararcterCount(char c){
         int count = 0;
         for(int i = 0;i<30;i++){
            Person p = Person ;
count = count + p.charCount(c);
return count;
public static void main(String [] args)throws Exception{
Enrollment e = new Enrollment();
e.print();
System.out.println("Letter a appears " + e.characterCount('a') + times);
keeps telling me that public static void main.... is already defined and i know that but once i delete that part from program i just keep getting more errors later and i just have no clue how to make this all work

Answer 1

the program is supposed to count the number of times
a certain letter appears in the first and last names
of the class.I was asking about the particular code snippet you posted, not about the program.
....p.charCount is supposed to count the
number of times that character appears, or at least
that's what i want it to do, Does it do that? Did you test it? You should write a main method that just constructs a Person object and then call its charcount method for vairous characters--one that appears zero times, one time, and multiple times--and see if you get the right results.
i'm not too sure of the
rules aorund here and i don't know if this is taboo,
but would it be possible tot talk to you in real time
on AOL Instant Messenger or somethingNo, most people here (myself included) will not do that. It denies others the chance to learn from your problem, and prevents others who might help you from participating in the conversation.
