11,033 PointsCan you please fill out the addTile method so that it takes the char that is passed and adds it to the mHand member fiel
mHand = tile
doesn't work?
public class ScrabblePlayer {
private String mHand;
public ScrabblePlayer() {
mHand = "";
}
public String getHand() {
return mHand;
}
public void addTile(char tile) {
// Adds the tile to the hand of the player
mHand = tile;
}
public boolean hasTile(char tile) {
return false;
}
}

mHand += tile;
