Prompter.java

Are we using charAt(0) on the guess input in case the player enters more than one character? This video does cover a lot without explaining it very well. Also, I thought i got "this" in this kind of situation, but let me get this straight. "this.game" inside the Prompter constructor is referring to the private variable up top, and "game" on the other side of the equals refers to the parameter?

Yes.

And to your second question. Yes. this always refers to the class level variable.

Thank you Mr Butler. I read something that made me think I was confused. No worries. Much appreciation.
