Data insert into SQLITE with Android Studio

Question

I'm trying to create a function to insert into SQLITE. I keep getting error : -

Error:(62, 23) error: cannot find symbol variable action_settings Error:(50, 36) error: cannot find symbol variable menu

I checked the code doesn't seem to understand where about went wrong. I'm totally new to Java and Android Programming.

Below are the source codes:-

DatabaseHelper.java

package com.example.adrian.insert;

import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;

/**

public class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
    public static final String DATABASE_NAME = "Student.db";
    public static final String TABLE_NAME = "student_table";
    public static final String COL_1 = "ID";
    public static final String COL_2 = "NAME";
    public static final String COL_3 = "SURNAME";
    public static final String COL_4 = "MARKS";

    public DatabaseHelper(Context context) {
        super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, 1);
    }

    @Override
    public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        db.execSQL("create table " + TABLE_NAME +" (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,NAME TEXT,SURNAME TEXT,MARKS INTEGER)");
    }

    @Override
    public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "+TABLE_NAME);
        onCreate(db);
    }

    public boolean insertData(String name,String surname,String marks) {
        SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
        ContentValues contentValues = new ContentValues();
        contentValues.put(COL_2,name);
        contentValues.put(COL_3,surname);
        contentValues.put(COL_4,marks);
        long result = db.insert(TABLE_NAME,null ,contentValues);
        if(result == -1)
            return false;
        else
            return true;
    }
}

        btnAddData = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button_add);
        AddData();
    }

    public  void AddData() {
        btnAddData.setOnClickListener(
                new View.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override

                    }
                }
        );

remove this if block

if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
    return true;
}
