3,549 PointsI think I already satisfied both exceptions. What is wrong with my code?
I think I already satisfied both exceptions namely 1. m should be the first letter on every field name then 2. second letter should be capitalized
public class TeacherAssistant {
public static String validatedFieldName(String fieldName) {
// These things should be verified:
// 1. Member fields must start with an 'm'
// 2. The second letter in the field name must be uppercased to ensure camel-casing
// NOTE: To check if something is not equal use the != symbol. eg: 3 != 4
if (fieldName.charAt(0) != 'm') {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Member fields must start with an 'm'.");
}
if (Character.isUpperCase(fieldName.charAt(1))) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("The second letter in the field name must be uppercased to ensure camel-casing.");
}
return fieldName;
}
}

8,820 PointsHi Ray, You have everything almost perfect just a tiny logic error: in your second if statement you are throwing an error if a second letter is uppercase however you should be omitting this case. So a sneaky exclamation mark at the start of that condition should fix your problem :) Keep up the great work Ray!! -CodyTheCoder
