I don't know witch what group I need to match matches which I already have.

Hi

I don't know if I understand in 100% text of challange. There is written that I should compare matches I already have in variable with something but there is not explained with which. I thought that method get thing we compare in parameter but I get error.

I still don't get why error box doesn't show me any error message. Is it broken somehow ?

Cheers

ScrabblePlayer.java 
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 mHand.indexOf(tile) > -1;
  }

  public int getTileCount(char tile){
    int numOfMatches = 0;
    for(char innerTile : mHand){
      if(innerTile == tile ){
        numOfMatches++; 
      }
    }
    return numOfMatches; 
  }
}

Mateusz,

You pretty much got this down. Hint: What method is it that you can call from a string that gives you an array of characters?

       for(char innerTile : mHand.???){

Regards,
