Java Eclipse Error?

Question

Every time I try to run a program,

Error: Main method not found in class program3, please define the main method as:

public static void main(String[] args)

An example would be:

public class program3 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println("Hello World");
}
}

Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

make sure that you are compiling the class. if you had not compiled the code and trying to execute an old version that was compiled before you inserted main might be causing the issue.
