Hello programmer, i hope ur all alright...am new to Java doing this TrafficLight work and i Have managed to code everything but i got 1 error and i dont know what to do as i have tried everything. please feel free to correct the code where i have gone wrong. the Traffic lights need to be ON one by one, as one traffic light showing, the others need to be set to black so they dont show.
Thank You in advance....
