Given this
public boolean promptForGuess() {
Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
boolean isHit = false;
boolean isValidInput = false;
do {
System.out.print("Enter a letter: ");
String input = s.nextLine();
char letter = input.charAt(0);
try {
isHit = game.applyGuess(letter);
isValidInput = true;
} catch (IllegalArgumentException iae) {
System.out.println(iae.getMessage());
}
} while (!isValidInput);
return isHit;
}
Because of this line of code, I believe
char letter = input.charAt(0);
If a pass to the constructor a word like this "Wrong".
Whether I type any of these "R, O, N, G" the toLowerCase() command will work. Not so with "W" if
I type "w" it will count as a miss.
