Android and Eclipse errors

I am new to android. I created new Android app project. Min SDK: 16, target: 21. And I got bunch of errors similar to this one:

[2016-05-31 22:36:16 - project1] E:\workspace\project1\res\values\styles.xml:7: error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'Theme.AppCompat.Light'.
[2016-05-31 22:36:16 - project1]

and also red underlined lines: "The import android.support.v7" cannot be resolved. The same with ActionBarUtilty and many others. It was new project!

I reinstalled SDK and eclipse...it didn't helped. I can't find solution..I tried to include .jar libraries from SDK but I am doing it wrong or it doesn't help..

Eclipse is dead for Android development, I think since 2013-2014. Download Android Studio https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html , You will see it very simple to start a new project. You can download the sdk and android-studio in one installation.
