<identifier> expected error

[camzgon121]

Hi guys, I have this code and when I try to compile and run it gives me an <identifier> expected error.

The code with the irrelevant parts taken out.

package ACCOUNT; 
import java.util.Scanner; 
import java.util.GregorianCalendar; 
import javax.swing.*; 

class Bank
{ 
static private double bal; //Account balance 
static int withdraw; //amount of times withdrawn 
static void setBal(double amount){bal = amount;} 
static double getBal(){return bal;} 

public static void main(String[] args)
{ 
//code 
} 

class Charge extends Bank
{ 
double fee = Bank.withdraw * 0.10; 
double tempbal = Bank.getBal(); 
double amount = tempbal - fee ; 
Bank.setBal(amount); 
}

when I run it points to the line Bank.setBal(amo unt) and says <identifier> expected

can someone help?

You need to go through a Java tutorial first before you start writing the Java code.
Also make sure you design your program structure first (including class structure).

I agree. I was about to point out your specific mistake, but then I stepped back and looked at your entire code, and it was like seeing someone hammering nails with the handle of a screwdriver. You need to either go through some tutorials or find a good book.
