1. You seem to have got your structures wrong. What you're adding
 to the Customer map is <Name, Address>, but instead of Address
 you've defined Customer to contain Customer. If that doesn't
 confuse you, I applaud your mental prowess. 
  
2. Your code doesn't put a String and an Address into the map.
 That's because your code doesn't wrap the customer's name in
 quotes. Leaving out the quotes makes Java interpret the name as a
 Java language keyword or a class or variabla name, which probably
 isn't your intent. 
  
3. Your code uses a Map#Put method. The Map class doesn't have a
 method named Put. It's named put. Note the lower-cased
 p.
  
Combining that, this should work: 
  
final class mine {

private final map<String, String> customers = new HashMap<>(); 

public final void add() {
  this.customers.put("Andrew Smith", "1 The High Street, area 1,
 123ABC");
}

}

If you want the customers map to hold an Address type rather than
 a String containing address data, you'll have to define an
 Address class, first.
  
Does that help?
