1. Install Java Development Kit (JDK):
   Make sure you have the Java Development Kit (JDK) installed on your macOS. You can download and install the latest JDK version from the official Oracle website or use OpenJDK.

2. Write Your Java Code:
   Write your Java code using a text editor or an integrated development environment (IDE) like IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, or Visual Studio Code.

3. Save Your Java File:
   Save yourJava code with a .java extension. For example, you can name it MyClass.java.

4. Open Terminal:
   On macOS, you can open the Terminal application. You can use Spotlight search (Cmd+Space) and type "Terminal" to open it.

5. Navigate to Your Code Directory:
   Use the cd command to navigate to the directory where your Java file is located. For example:

cd /path/to/your/code

6. Compile Your Java Code:
   To compile your Java code, use the javac command followed by the name of your Java file. For example:
   javac MyClass.java

If there are no syntax errors in your code, this will create a class file with the same name but with a .class extension (e.g., MyClass.class).

7. Run Your Java Program:
   After successfully compiling your code, you can run it using the java command followed by the name of the class (without the .class extension). For example:

java MyClass

This will execute your Java program.
