The question says In the normalizeDiscountCode verify .... Your code is in a different method. I'd also look at the enhanced for loop to make that code easier.
Have a go at that, and let me know how you get on.

4,548 PointsI moved it to the correct method and switched to an enhanced. Still receiving the error. Any ideas?
public class Order {
private String itemName;
private int priceInCents;
private String discountCode;
public Order(String itemName, int priceInCents) {
this.itemName = itemName;
this.priceInCents = priceInCents;
}
private String normalizeDiscountCode (String discountCode) {
for (char check : discountCode.toCharArray()) {
if (! Character.isLetter(check) || check != '$') {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Invalid discount code");
}
}
return discountCode.toUpperCase();
}
public String getItemName() {
return itemName;
}
public int getPriceInCents() {
return priceInCents;
}
public String getDiscountCode() {
return discountCode;
}
public void applyDiscountCode(String discountCode) {
this.discountCode = normalizeDiscountCode(discountCode);
}
}

4,548 PointsGot it! The 'or' should have been an 'and'. The error was not at all helpful though.
Cheers.
