2,816 PointsGot false instead of true after lower case at boolean condition
I've used "java-repl" at class, and follow the exact orders of Craig Dennis, but got different results
The code: java> String someWords = "This is a bunch of WORDS!"; java.lang.String someWords = "This is a bunch of WORDS!" java> String lowerWords = someWords.toLowerCase(); java.lang.String someWords = "This is a bunch of words!" java> someWords.contains("words"); java.lang.boolean res1 = false
When Craig got true.. What did I did wrong?
When I wrote java> someWords java.lang.String someWords = "This is a bunch of WORDS!"

someWords = someWords.toLowerCase();
