Courses Plus Student 15,000 PointsHi Eni,
In this challenge you must loop through the list defined in Blog, and for every object in it get the author and store it in a Set object. You should use a TreeSet because it will sort your Strings alphabetically on his own, you don't need to define a comparator to do that.
If what i said did not help you understand this challenge, here is the code for the method you should write, don't forget to add the proper imports for Set and TreeSet:
