So i'm trying to do this challenge, with the public int getTileCount(char tile) section. In my for each loop, it complains that using the word "tile" is a bad initializer for the loop. What am I supposed to be using?
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 tile){
int count = 0;
for (tile : mHand.toCharArray()){
count += 1;
}
return count;
}
}

Treehouse TeacherI'll give you a hint. The tile variable holds a character... just a single character. I posted a fairly detailed solution and explanation to this here. Take a look if you need to!
