pentagonal program
































































































































I have to write a program that displays the first 100 pentagonal numbers using different methods. This is what I have so far:
































































































































public class FivePointOne{































































































































public static void main(String[]args){































































































































System.out.println("The the pentagonal numbers are: ");































































































































}































































































































//this method will find the penagonal numbers































































































































public static int getPentagonalNumber(int n){































































































































for(int i = 0; i < 100 ; i++){































































































































if(valueOfEquation(i) % 5 == 0)
































































































































}































































































































//return n;































































































































}































































































































//This method will calculate the numerator































































































































public static int getNumerator(int n){































































































































int N = (n*((3*n)-1));































































































































return N;































































































































}































































































































//This method defines the denominator































































































































public static int getDenominator(int n){































































































































final int d = 2;































































































































return d;































































































































}































































































































//This method will calcualte the equation































































































































public static int valueOfEquation(int n){































































































































int value = getNumerator(N) / getDenominator(d) ;































































































































return value;































































































































}
































































































































}
































































































































But when I compile it to test it out I receive the error message "Illegal start of expression," ';' expected, and "reach end of file while parsing". Can anyone explain to me what is going on and how to fix it so?
