variable out of type PrintStream in Java (not printIn problem)

Question

When I run this Java code I get the error "System.out.printLn("Java is more complicated than python"); ^ symbol: method printLn(String) location: variable out of type PrintStream" My Code is:

class complicated{
    public static void main(String args[]){
        System.out.printLn("Java is more complicated than python");
    }
}

P.S I know this question has been asked before but I don't have System.out.printIn instead of System.out.printLn.

What do you mean by "I don't have System.out.printIn instead of System.out.printLn"? — Abhinav, Nov 24 '18 at 10:22
You get an error because you're trying to call a method that doesn't exist. It's named `println`, not `printLn`. — JB Nizet, Nov 24 '18 at 10:23
The real error message is *"cannot find symbol"*! The *"location: variable out of type PrintStream"* message is telling you that the problem is with a variable called "out". — Stephen C, Nov 24 '18 at 10:34

You should do this:

class complicated{
    public static void main(String args[]){
        System.out.println("Java is more complicated than python");
    }
}

Here is a good link on System.out.print works:

How does System.out.print() work?
