Just a little help needed please!

Question

Hello all - My name is John, new poster here on the forums.
I'm taking a Java class and I'm really really stuck - I took this 'TestScanner.java' right outta my text and it gives me an error when I compile it at cmd prompt; I checked and rechecked my coping from the text and it is correct. I polled 5 other people and for 2 of them it works when they compile yet all others it won't work.
I'm running -
Java version "1.6.0_07"
Java SE Runtime Environment (Build 1.6.0_07-b06)
Java Hotspot Client VM (build 10.0-b23, mixed mode, sharing)
The Script i'm trying to run -
import java.util.Scanner;
public class TestScanner {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter an integer: ");
int intValue = input.nextInt();
System.out.println("You entered the integer " + intValue);
System.out.print("Enter a double value: ");
double doubleValue = input.nextDouble();
System.out.println("You entered the double value " + doubleValue);
System.out.print("Enter a string without space: ");
String string = input.next();
System.out.println("You entered the string " + string);
When I run javac TestScanner.java I get 3 errors on the capital S in the lines -
import java.util.Scanner;
^
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
^
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
^
I'm really not sure what the deal is here and I really thank you for your help with this.

I ran your code on this java version. It just ran perfect:
java version "1.6.0_10-rc"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-rc-b28)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b15, mixed mode, sharing)
I would suggest just remove all the code and just System.out.println("Test") then start adding the code one line at a time so you know where the problem is coming from..
