Ok, I fixed my brackets, and also had to give the event the ev name instead of"e" because it was already being used. I imported the import java.io.* statement and added the class extends section of the code.
I still have an error, when I enter the numbers in. I receive the catch message, and I shouldn't because I am entering a number. Whats wrong? I attached a picture. I am happy though that I can at least see my program now.

Have a look please.
