5,665 PointsProblem with task 2 of the Storing Guesses Challenge
I would assume this would work. Pretty sure I misunderstood the instructions. Help would be appreciated.
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) {
if((mHand.contains(tile)) {
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
}
}

27,272 PointsDon't feel stupid! I did the same thing. I tried for a while to use a Character method. I could get them to work in terminal, but they were not the right application for the challenge.

5,665 PointsHaha, thanks for the support my friend, it means a lot. As I go on, it's making more sense to me and I feel slightly less and less stupid. Guess it's just a part of the learning process. :)
