Huh? Was there a question?

He's got a "illegal start of expression" error in his code.

If you used code tags, it'd be a lot easier to find the answer. Or you could just look at what line number the compiler said the error occurrs on.

illegal start of expression at public void check() at line 50.. please can anyone help me please..
