Ensure the name entered by the user is not empty (HINT: a string variable is an object which means you can call methods. Search JavaDoc for a method that will tell you if a string is empty or not (empty string = a string with no characters “”). If the name of the employee is empty print “not entered” instead of the name.

1 error found:
File: C:\Users\Turel\Documents\Object-Oriented Programing 1\employee payroll\sheridan\PayrollStatement.java  [line: 9]
Error: <identifier> expected

I have been trying to get this program to work for 2 days. ive tried every combination i could think of.
