1,006 PointsI think my method getRemainingCharacterCount() should work?? However when ever i try to submit it says bummer! try again
I pretty much wrote the request in the title. The method should work I think, but it wont allow me to pass the test. Can someone please review my code for the given method and try to help me figure it out? Thanks in advance :)
public class Tweet {
public static final int MAX_CHARS = 140;
private String text;
public Tweet(String text) {
this.text = text;
}
public String getText() {
return text;
}
public void setText(String text) {
this.text = text;
}
public int getRemainingCharacterCount(){
int rmc = 0;
while(text.length() <= MAX_CHARS){
rmc = MAX_CHARS - text.length();
}
return rmc;
}
}
