Hi, can anybody help me with this? I am doing an Introduction to Programming module using Java and am stuck at this question. Write a program which reads in a username and a password, and expects the username to be "brian" and the password to be "spam". The program should print a welcome message if these are both correct. Thanks.

Julie29 public class Bridget {
/**
* @param args
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String username1; // Username of person
String password1; // Password of person
System.out.println (" Please enter a username:()");
username1 = ;
System.out.println (" Please enter a " + password1);
password;
if username1 = Brian;
System.out.println("Welcome");
else
System.out.println ("Incorrect username");
if (password1 = spam);
System.out.println ("Welcome");
else
System.out.println("Incorrect password");
}end main( //)
end class //
This is what I have so far.

JamesCherrill 3,328 There are quite a few syntax errors there - missing () etc. Compile your program to get a list of syntax errors and fix them (start at the top and re-compile after each one, as an error early in the code can disrupt parsing of the code that follows).
Then a couple of hints:
To compare Strings you can't use == (even less =, which is assignment). YOU need the equals method (documented in the standard API doc for String)
You can use a Scanner with System.in to read input from the user. Google for more detail.
