help me to solve my problem

given a class that name player..contains under that class is

+getCards(): Cards[]

the description for this contains is -> getCards() – a method that gets card from the player

then my coding for this class is


public class Player
{
public Cards[] getCards ()
{
return cards;

}//getCards
}//class

then when i compile...it has an error on that..

cannot find symbol class Cards


How it happen?what is an error actually?
TQ

If it can't find Cards it means that you don't have a Cards class in the same folder or the same package when you're trying to compile. Have you written the Cards class? If so, can you post it along with a copy of any error messages you're getting.
Can you put you're main method in as well so we can see what you're trying to call.
Can you stick your code in [ highlight=Java] [/highlight] tags please, makes it easier to read, cheers

You were asked to use the highlight tags. I edited your post to include them, but please be more mindful in the future.

You were also asked to provide the actual error message.

Please don't simply dump your code here. If you want help, boil your problem down to an SSCCE (that's a link), and be as specific as possible.

But for starters- Your class name is Card, but your file name is Cards.
