Whenever I put package util; in my code (before the imports), I get an error that util is not the expected package.
If you put "package util;" it has to be in the folder "util", and has to be compiled from outside the folder (javac util/whatever.java).
If you're in Eclipse, just create a package in the window thingy, then create the Java file inside of it.
Oh. Yay!

Got it! Pound it, iago! *holds out fist*
