The link you have provided does not link to any java code, it only links to your user profile.

in your Game.java I see this err

   char display = "-";

it should be

   char display = '-';

not the single quote

also

    for(char letter = answer.toCharArray()) {

should be

    for(char letter : answer.toCharArray()) {

this should solve the typos

hope this helps

hey, thank you very much! it did work but I didn't get it that what is the differences between using single quote and in double quotes.

The single quote is reserved for Java type [char]. A char type is not the same thing as a String.

so ... "A" and a String and 'A' is a Char corresponding to unicode character as defined here: http://www.rapidtables.com/code/text/unicode-characters.htm

Please take a look here: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/String.html and here https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Character.html

and observe the differences between the two.

Hope this helps
