Java Web Development Techdegree Graduate 22,175 PointsBefore you run stuff in JShell, please compile classes to see if there are any errors.
When I run javac Game.java
the errors comes
symbol: variable hits
location: class Game
Game.java:16: error: cannot find symbol
hits += letter;
^
symbol: variable hits
location: class Game
2 errors
Do you know how to fix the error?
I mean I can give you a hint, but if you see the error yourself and can fix it, then for learning purposes it is better that you fix and find it yourself.
Google is also there to help, error is very common.
But if you are completely stuck, just let me know, I'll give you a hint.

DAMN, that feels good :) :) :) :) :) :)
