Blue Pelican Java Help

So for Lesson 15(For those who want an exact answer) we have to have a "bank account" where people start off with 1,000 dollars that you need to type in. You need to be able to withdraw and deposit money and then print the balance. I believe I have everything in place but I will see if someone can help me. My biggest problem it seems is that when I run it, it tells me that you can't make a static reference to a non-static reference.

 

First Part:

 

package overDrawn;

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;

public class Tester {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        
        Scanner kbReader = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("What is your first name?_");
        String a = kbReader.next();
        System.out.print("What is your last name?_");
        String b = kbReader.next();
        String accountee = a + " " + b;
        
        System.out.println("1. Deposit");
        System.out.println("2. Withdrawal\n");
        
        Scanner Key = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("What would you like to do?_");
        int choice = Key.nextInt();
        
        switch (choice)
        {
        case 1:
            System.out.print("How much are you depositing today?_");
            Scanner Board = new Scanner(System.in);
            double myDeposit = Board.nextDouble();
            BankAccount.deposit(myDeposit);
            System.out.print("The " + accountee + " now has a balance of " + BankAccount.balance);
            break;
        case 2:
            System.out.print("How much are you withdrawing today?_");
            Scanner d = new Scanner(System.in);
            double myWithdrawal = d.nextDouble();
            BankAccount.withdraw(myWithdrawal);
            System.out.print("The " + accountee + " now has a balance of " + BankAccount.balance);
            break;
        }
    
    }

It might be a mistake but you have class Tester added twice and don't include your BankAccount class.

 

Also, please use code tags. Use the blue < > icon in the editor when posting or manually use code tags.

[code]// Enter your code here between the tagspublic class Example{    // ...}[/code]

With all of that said, your issue seems to be these lines

BankAccount.deposit(myDeposit);// andBankAccount.withdraw(myWithdrawal);

Unless deposit and withdraw are static, you first have to create a BankAccount object to be able to use them

BankAccount ba = new BankAccount(...); // Parameters in constructor if needed// then call methods like soba.deposit(...);ba.withdraw(...);
