Now it says Bummer ... 'e' was supposed to return 1 and instead returned 8. Not following the issue and the next step.
public class ScrabblePlayer {
private String mHand;
private int mCount;
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 tile){
for (char letter: mHand.toCharArray()){
if(letter >= 0){
mCount ++;
}
}
return mCount;
}
}
