java.util.NoSuchElementException No clue why this is happening

My guess is your scope for multiple variables are wrong.

For this line: public Game(String answer){ mAnswer = answer; mHits = ""; mMisses = ""; } mAnswer & mMisses are not defined in the scope?

Try adding another bracket } at the end of your code, that worked for me.

Yeah, I struggled with the no "NoSuchElementException" for a while (Still do on occasion).

Basically, it's a typo in your java class. They tend to happen in these exercises because we skip compiling our code before goin into java-repl.

java-repl will load your code regardless of typos so if there is a minor mistake in your code it won't pick up until you try to to create (instantiate) your class in Java-repl.

Matthew Rozmajzl's code:

public class Game { 
  private String mAnswer; 
  private String mHits; 
  private String mMisses;

  public Game(String answer) { 
    mAnswer = answer; 
    mHits = ""; 
    mMisses = ""; 
  }


// There is a typo on the following line: 
  public boolean applyGuess(char letter);
// End of typo
    boolean isHit = mAnswer.indexOf(letter) >= 0; 
    if (isHit) { 
      mHits += letter; 
    } else { 
      mMisses += letter; 
    } 
    return isHit; 
  }
//There should be the end of a bracket between these comments.

//bracket should have gone above.

I messed up because I forgot to include a return statement. If you're really stuck run the below code.

PowerlessCube's Code:

public class Game {
  private String mAnswer;
  private String mHits;
  private String mMisses;

  public Game(String answer) {
    mAnswer = answer;
    mHits = "";
    mMisses = "";
  }

  public boolean applyGuess(char letter) {
    boolean isHit = mAnswer.indexOf(letter) >= 0;
    if (isHit) {
      mHits += letter;
    } else {
      mMisses += letter;
    }
    /* I was missing the return statement as the exercise may have glossed
over this but due to Java's statically typed form this function was
expecting to return a boolean answer.  Returning our 'isHit' fixes the
problem.
*/
    return isHit;
  }
}

java-repl code:

java> :load Game.java
Loaded source file from Game.java
java> Game game = new Game("treehouse");
Game game = Game @6a753a7f // how your initialised class is stored on the computer.
game.applyGuess('t');
java.lang.Boolean res1 = true; // matches one of our letters.
game.applyGuess('z');
java.lang.Boolean res2 = false // doesn't match on our letters.

I hope the above helps you spot these sort of mistakes in future.

I have the same issue after repeating all the steps as mentioned in the video. I think something isn't right.

I have this as the following and am getting an error: public class Game{

private String mAnswer; private String mHits; private String mMisses;

public Game(String answer){ mAnswer = answer; mHits = ""; mMisses = "";

}

public boolean applyGuess(char letter){ boolean isHit = answer.indexOf(letter) >= 0; if(isHit){ mHits += letter; }else { mMisses += letter; } return isHit;

} }

On your applyGuess method you put a semicolon instead of an opening bracket after your parameters:

public boolean applyGuess(char letter); should be public boolean applyGuess(char letter) {
