######check this out. It's working ##########

  1. Download Java Open your web browser Type URL: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-downloads.html... to go to Oracle download page. This will lead you <> page
    Click on button “ JDK download ” for Java SE update 4.
    Accept oracle license agreement Find and click on the correct jdk download link right for your operating system to download Save the file to disk

NOTE >>>>> if you find this word (version) which means you should change it depending on your downloaded version ---- if you use linux

2 cd Downloads

3 ls

4 sudo dpkg -i jdk-(VERSION)_linux-x64_bin.deb

5 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jvm/(version)/bin/java 1

6 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/lib/jvm/(VERSION)/bin/javac 1

<>>>if it doesn't work then u essentially need to change the (version) in the commands above as mentioned at the note

You need to install Java Development Kit. If you are using Debian based system (Ubuntu, Linux mint, etc.) just type in terminal: sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk. On windows you must visit Java website and download Java JDK manually.

To check if you have installed Java JDK, type in console javac -version, you should see message like this: javac 1.8.0_91

The error seems fairly explicit - install javac.

This is probably in a java related package of your distro's package manager. It probably has search functionality to find the one you want.
