231,210 PointsIn "Prompter.java", on line 14 the "charAt" method is being called with a character argument of '0'.
But the argument to "charAt" should be a number value (no quotes).

231,210 PointsWe'd need to see the code, either posted with Markdown formatting, or you could make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here. A link to the course page you are working with would also be helpful.
