808 PointsNeed some help here.
I am a bit stuck here. Making this Hangman game inspired me to try to write one of my favorite board games, Scrabble. Can you help me using the skills you've learned from the course thus far? I've modeled a ScrabblePlayer and decided to store their tiles in a String For this first task, modify the addTile method so that it appends the tile that was passed in, to the player's tiles. Practice using the += shortcut method for string concatenation.
public class ScrabblePlayer {
// A String representing all of the tiles that this player has
private String tiles;
public ScrabblePlayer() {
tiles = "";
}
public String getTiles() {
return tiles;
}
public boolean addTile(char tile) {
}
public boolean hasTile(char tile) {
// TODO: Determine if user has the tile passed in
return false;
}
}

For the first task you only need to add the char (Character) tile passed to the method addTile into the String tiles. Please remember that String basically just a collection of Characters. You just need to do this:
public boolean addTile(char tile) {
tiles += tile;
}
I hope this can help a little. Happy coding and finish all the challenges.

808 PointsThanks for the fast reply. It worked super good exept that instead of it standing boolean is should say void
