27,419 PointsHi, they want you to create a new function called 'getTileCount' which you pass a tile. This then loops through all current tiles and counts how many of that particular tile you have. I have included code which should help you to understand.
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 tileMatch) {
int count = 0;
for (char tile: mHand.toCharArray()){
if (tile == tileMatch)
count++;
}
return count;
}
}
