From my understanding this is what I am attempting to do, I am creating an interface to outline what a character is,
I am creating a class to define each method that a Character will use.
In that same class I create a new object of that character as many times as I like.
So if I want to make 10 characters I just do that all from the same class?
Currently I am attempting to create one character by giving it attributes.
Then I want to System.out.prinln but when I compile I get
javac Hero.java
Hero.java:3: error: interface expected here
public class Hero implements Character {
^
1 error
I changed Character to Player and this is what I get,
javac Hero.java Hero.java:3: error: cannot find symbol public class Hero implements Player { ^ symbol: class Player 1 error
