7,052 PointsReturning wrong int?
I've been struggling with this challenge for a while now, even though this is my second time going through this course and I've completed it before.
Anytime i submit this code, It comes back with "Bummer! I entered Anderson and expected to get back line 1 as A comes before M"
I have tried to return 0 for line 1 and 1 for line 2 but i get the same error.
public class ConferenceRegistrationAssistant {
public int getLineFor(String lastName) {
/* If the last name is between A thru M send them to line 1
Otherwise send them to line 2 */
int line = 0;
if(lastName.charAt(0) <= 'm') {
line = 1;
}else{
line = 2;
}
return line;
}
}
