Can someone look at my code i cant seem to find the error. please help. It doesnt seem to work on the console

Game.java

class Game { private String answer; private String hits; private String misses;

public Game(String answer) { this.answer = answer; hits = ""; misses = "";

}

public boolean applyGuess(char letter) { boolean isHit = answer.indexOf(letter) != -1; if(isHit) { hits += letter; } else { misses += letter; } return isHit; }

Hangman.java:

public class Hangman {

public static void main(String[] args) { // Your incredible code goes here... Game game = new Game("treehouse"); Prompter prompter = new Prompter(game); prompter.displayProgress(); boolean isHit = prompter.promptForGuess(); if (isHit) { System.out.println("We got a hit!"); } else { System.out.println("Oops missed"); } prompter.displayProgress(); } }

Prompter.java:

import java.util.Scanner;

public Prompter(Game game) { this.game = game; }

public boolean promptForGuess() { Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.print("Enter a letter: "); String guessInput = scanner.nextLine(); char guess = guessInput.charAt(0); return game.applyGuess(guess);

} public void displayProgress() { System.out.printf("Try to solve: %s%n", game.getCurrentProgress()); } }

You declared String Progress ( with a capital P) in class Game.
