Can you also please help me write out the hasTile method? It should return true if the hand has the tile, and false if it doesn't. Thanks!
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;
}
}

Call that method on mHand and pass in title as the character. Then use an if-else statement to determine whether to return true or false.
