When I ran the program, I didn't get the prompt but it did compile so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

The output I get:

Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m
treehouse:~/workspace$

I don't get a prompt to enter a letter and I did exactly as he did.

I copied and pasted my input, I can't find what could have possibly gone wrong.

input;

1) Hangman.java;

public class Hangman { // main executable file where we will use instances of the Prompter and Game classes

public static void main(String[] args) { // Your incredible code goes here...

// make new instance of my game

Game game = new Game("treehouse");
Prompter prompter = new Prompter(game);
boolean isHit = prompter.promptForGuess();

if (isHit) { 
  System.out.println("We got a hit!");
} else {
  System.out.println("Oops missed");
}

} }

2) Prompter.java;

import java.util.Scanner; class Prompter { // Will use this Prompter object for all input/output // who ever is working on Prompter will need to know about our game object // so we will store a private variable thats an instance of our game

private Game game;

//constructor which we use to create an instance of the Game

public Prompter(Game game) { this.game = game;

}

// create method that will prompt for a guess & returns whether guess was correct

public boolean promptForGuess() { Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);

System.out.println("Enter a letter:   ");
String guessInput = scanner.nextLine();

char guess = guessInput.charAt(0);
return game.applyGuess(guess);

} }

3) Game.java

class Game { // this class will need to know answer to the puzzle aka maintains the game logic

private String answer; private String hits; private String misses;

// then make a constructor to force creation of a game to provide an answer

// constructor has same name as class

public Game(String answer) { this.answer = answer; hits = ""; misses = "";

}

public boolean applyGuess(char letter) { boolean isHit = answer.indexOf(letter) != -1; if (isHit) { hits += letter; }else { misses += letter; } return isHit;

}

}
