Spark Dataset : Example : Unable to generate an encoder issue

New to spark world and trying a dataset example written in scala that I found online

On running it through SBT , i keep on getting the following error

org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: Unable to generate an encoder for inner class

Any idea what am i overlooking

Also feel free to point out better way of writing the same dataset example

Thanks
