Getting an error saying 'reached end of file while parsing'. Any ideas please?

I'm only growing 'character' only each time after the condition is met. Should I not?

ScrabblePlayer.java 
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 (char character: mHand.toCharArray()) {
      if(character == tile) {
            count ++;
        }
    }
   return count;
  }

Hi Joe Killick,

it seems like you only forgot to put the closing curly brace at the end of the class :-). Your code looks pretty solid. Try it, I'm pretty sure that's the only little mistake you've made.

Oh, Thanks Mario; I really appreciate your help. I'd gone through it a million times but couldn't see that. Cheers mate

You are welcome mate. Glad I could help you. I hate those little mistakes too and sometimes they can drive one crazy :-)
