I have to make a BlackJack game for a class assignment, and I got most of it right, but there were a few things that came up at errors that I'm not quite sure how to fix...

    }

}
}

Errors:
1. In line 063, I'm getting the error it's an "invalid method declaration, return type required." What kind of return type would I use for that, and where would I put it?

2. In line 164, it says that for both "table's", it "cannot find symbol." How do I fix is so that it can?

3. In line 170, "Button clicked = (JButton)e.getSource();" it says that there's "incomparable types, java.awt.Button required, javax.swing.JButton found". I have both. Can I not use them simultaneously?

4. In line 171, "if(clicked == deal) {", it also says that there's "incomparable types: java.awt.Button and javax.swing.JButton". So do I need or not need those things?

1 - Fairly self explanatory. Methods need a return type: void, int, String, etc. Or is it supposed to be a class?

2 - You can't create an object from the method, table(). Is table() supposed to be a constructor? Did you rename the BlackJack class from Table? No, that doesn't make sense.

3 - Using both AWT and Swing components in the same application is not advised. Why would you want to?

4 - Change all AWT components to Swing components.

Return type is missing in your metho declaration

[lmharmon]

1. I don't know how to right a return statement for this particular type of message.

2. How do change the AWT components to Swing without having to rewrite my entire code?

I think you mean the table() method as a constructor, so it should have the same name as the class name, so: public BlackJack(){
Change Button to JButton and so on
