HELP!!!!!!!!So for I've managed to go from 15 errors to 9 errors, what is it that I'm not seeing?

Write the program in Java (with a graphical user interface) so that it will allow the user to select which way they want to calculate a mortgage: by input of the amount of the mortgage, the term of the mortgage, and the interest rate of the mortgage payment or by input of the amount of a mortgage and then select from a menu of mortgage loans:

- 7 year at 5.35%
- 15 year at 5.5 %
- 30 year at 5.75%

In either case, display the mortgage payment amount and then, list the loan balance and interest paid for each payment over the term of the loan. Allow the user to loop back and enter a new amount and make a new selection, or quit. Insert comments in the program to document the program.

public Week4Mortgage();
You need to remove that semicolon, and I dont think I saw a closing bracket for that method either

You add the closing bracket to the constructor of Week4Mortagage?

If you did and still shows, please print the line of code it appears at

Oh ok, I might have put the bracket in the wrong place. I'll try it again and see what happens. Also when you say print the line of code it appears at do you mean by writing "System.out.println?"

um, no I mean find the line of code that has the error, and copy and paste it in here...

Well, you need to check all your brackets. I think you have an extra bracket somewhere
