Returning a number of times attempt used with respect to the total trials remaining.

Question

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.

Tweet.java

public class Tweet {
  public static final int MAX_CHARS=140;
  private String text;
  private int count;
  public Tweet(String text) {
    this.text = text;
  }

  public getRemainingCharacterCount(){
    return MAX_CHARS - Text.length();
  }

  public String getText() {
    return text;
  }

  public void setText(String text) {
    this.text = text;
  }
}

you didn't set the return type so add int after public, then in the body, there is no Text, the field name is lowercase, so text.length().
