The function must be called month_name(), and must have one parameter (an integer), and return a String.

And finally, here's some starter code.

public static void main( String[] args )

    System.out.println( "Month 1: " + month_name(1) );
    System.out.println( "Month 2: " + month_name(2) );
    System.out.println( "Month 3: " + month_name(3) );
    System.out.println( "Month 4: " + month_name(4) );
    System.out.println( "Month 5: " + month_name(5) );
    System.out.println( "Month 6: " + month_name(6) );
    System.out.println( "Month 7: " + month_name(7) );
    System.out.println( "Month 8: " + month_name(8) );
    System.out.println( "Month 9: " + month_name(9) );
    System.out.println( "Month 10: " + month_name(10) );
    System.out.println( "Month 11: " + month_name(11) );
    System.out.println( "Month 12: " + month_name(12) );
    System.out.println( "Month 43: " + month_name(43) );
}
