It works on my end!

1. Open notepad, name the file Got.java

2. Type your code in (public class Got)

3. Run the command prompt (Windows key + R, type cmd press enter)

4. Find the file, I had mine on desktop so first I did C:\Users\(yourname)> cd desktop

5. javac Got.java
6. java Got

Remember to use JAVAC and .java to compile

Use only java Got when running
