It says that the hand was "sreclhak", 'e' was checked , expected 1 but got 8. cant seem to find a solution
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) {
return mHand.indexOf(tile) > -1;
}
public int getTileCount(char tile1) {
int count = 0;
for (char tile: mHand.toCharArray()) {
if (mHand.indexOf(tile1) >= 0) {
count++;
}
}
return count;
}
}

if (mHand.indexOf(tile1) >= 0) {
This checks to see if tile1 is in the hand. What you need instead is to see if the current tile equals the passed in one:
public int getTileCount(char tile1) {
int count = 0;
for (char tile: mHand.toCharArray()) {
if (tile == tile1) {
count++;
}
}
return count;
}

Courses Plus Student 2,943 PointsInside the foreach loop you don't need indexOf again but you already have everything in charArray. if (tile == tile1) {
count++; }
