Please Help me ! Task : I have modeled an assistant for a tech conference. Since there are so many attendees, registration is broken up into two lines. Lines are determined by last name, and they will end up in line 1 or line 2. Please help me fix the getLineFor method.
NEW INFO: chars can be compared using the > and < symbols. For instance 'B' > 'A' and 'R' < 'Z'
public class ConferenceRegistrationAssistant {
public int getLineFor(String lastName) {
/* If the last name is between A thru M send them to line 1
Otherwise send them to line 2 */
int line = 0;
return line;
}
}

For the last name to be between A to M that means that the 1st character of the lastname is larger or equal to A but also less or equal to M.
If that is true you want the value of the line to be set to 1, for anything else you want the value of the line to be 0.
I hope this helps you find the answer. If you are still stuck let us know.
