Hi,

I've been through the video and typed out the code in Workspaces. When I attempt to compile Example it keeps on giving me an errors. One of the errors is about not being able to find getHashTags() in treet. Is there a line of code that I am missing within the Treet class, or is there something else that I'm missing?

I appreciate all of the help,

Steve

Hey Steve,

Can you paste the code that you are trying so I can take a look?

Thanks!

Sure:

Example.java

import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Date; import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.HashSet; //Sets import java.util.Map; import java.util.Set; //Sets

import com.teamtreehouse.Treet; import com.teamtreehouse.Treets;

public class Example {

public static void main(String[] args) { Treet[] treets = Treets.load(); System.out.printf("There are %d treets. %n", treets.length); Set<String> allHashTags = new HashSet<String>(); //Sets Set<String> allMentions = new HashSet<String>(); //Sets for(Treet treet : treets) //Sets { allHashTags.addAll(treet.getHashTags()); //Sets } System.out.printf("Hash tags: %s %n", allHashTags); System.out.printf("Mentions: %s %n", allMentions);

Map<String, Integer> hashTagsCounts = new HashMap<String, Integer>();   //Maps
for(Treet treet : treets){    //see line 15
  for(String hashTag : treet.getHashTags())   //for each treet loop through each hash tag in
                                              //that treet
  {
    Integer count = hashTagCounts.get(hashTags);
    if(count == null)
    {
      count = 0;
    }
    count++;
    hashTagCount.put(hashTag, count);
  }
}
System.out.printf("Hash tag counts %s %n", hashTagCounts);

}

}

Treet.java

package com.teamtreehouse;

import java.io.Serializable; import java.util.Date;

public class Treet implements Comparable, Serializable { private static final long serialVersionUID = 7146681148113043748L; private String mAuthor; private String mDescription; private Date mCreationDate;

public Treet(String author, String description, Date creationDate) { mAuthor = author; mDescription = description; mCreationDate = creationDate; }

@Override public String toString() { return String.format("Treet: \"%s\" by %s on %s", mDescription, mAuthor, mCreationDate); }

@Override public int compareTo(Object obj) { Treet other = (Treet) obj; if (equals(other)) { return 0; } int dateCmp = mCreationDate.compareTo(other.mCreationDate); if (dateCmp == 0) { return mDescription.compareTo(other.mDescription); } return dateCmp; }

public String getAuthor() { return mAuthor; }

public String getDescription() { return mDescription; }

public Date getCreationDate() { return mCreationDate; }

public String[] getWords() { return mDescription.toLowerCase().split("[^\w#@']+");

}

}
