Courses Plus Student 1,143 PointsgetRemainingCount method help
Create a public method named getRemainingCharacterCount that returns an int representing how many characters they have left before they 140. Base your calculation on the field that stores the current text.
I don't know why my code is not working when it's returning an int.
public class Tweet {
private String text;
public static final int MAX_CHARS = 140;
public Tweet(String text) {
this.text = text;
}
public String getText() {
return text;
}
public void setText(String text) {
this.text = text;
}
public int getRemainingCount(){
int charLeft = MAX_CHARS - text.length();
return charLeft;
}
}
