Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 3,240 PointsI am lost. Please help
I keep trying to write this code but I keep getting an error. I tried to google the error but no luck. Maybe someone can explain what I am doing wrong?
public class ScrabblePlayer {
// A String representing all of the tiles that this player has
private String tiles;
public ScrabblePlayer() {
tiles = "";
}
public String getTiles() {
return tiles;
}
public void addTile(char tile) {
tiles += tile;
// TODO: Add the tile to tiles
}
public boolean hasTile(char tile) {
return tiles.indexOf(tile) >= 0; {
return true;
} else {
// TODO: Determine if user has the tile passed in
return false;
}
}

11,110 Pointstry check this part of your code this is totaly WRONG whre is IF ? and you dont neet ELSE if you return TRUE if if give you TRUE
public boolean hasTile(char tile) {
return tiles.indexOf(tile) >= 0; {
return true;
} else {
// TODO: Determine if user has the tile passed in
return false;
}
also indexOf if true return number of match if not it returns -1
