Comparing two coinflips, in JFrame, lots of problems need advice!!!

Hello all, thanks for coming!

I'm having tremendous issues today with making a program to compare the results of two flipped coins. Users are to be prompted for a number of coinflips, and the program must compare the results of each flip. Heads always wins, so if P1 (player 1) is heads and P2 is tails then P1 wins. If P1 is Heads and P2 is Heads, then it would output a tie. Also, I have to keep a going track on the number of wins for each player and output this number after all coin flips are done.

Right now I can't figure out how to compare the outputs of the two coinflips. I have them returned as a string value. There's only so much I can explain with words, but right now I'm really confused as to how I compare these coinflips, and then output them to the Jframe. Any and all help or advice is appreciated!!

Code :

---

package coinflip;
 
public class Coin
{
   private final int HEADS = 0;
   private final int TAILS = 1;
 
   private int face;
 
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   //  Sets up the coin by flipping it initially.
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   public Coin ()
   {
      flip();
   }
 
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   //  Flips the coin by randomly choosing a face value.
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   public void flip ()
   {
      face = (int) (Math.random() * 2);
   }
 
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   //  Returns true if the current face of the coin is heads.
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   public boolean isHeads ()
   {
      return (face == HEADS);
   }
 
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   //  Returns the current face of the coin as a string.
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   public String toString()
   {
      String faceName;
 
      if (face == HEADS)
         faceName = "Heads";
      else
         faceName = "Tails";
 
      return faceName;
   }
}

Code :

package coinflip;
 
public class CoinFlip
{
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   //  Creates first coin object, and flips it. 
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   public static void main (String[] args)
   {
      Coin myCoin = new Coin();
 
      myCoin.flip();
 
      System.out.println (myCoin);
 
      if (myCoin.isHeads()) {
	   System.out.println ("You win.");
       }
      else {
	   System.out.println ("Better luck next time.");
       }
   }
 
   //creates second coin object , and flips it. 
   {
       Coin newCoin = new Coin ();
 
       newCoin.flip();
 
       System.out.println (newCoin);
 
   }
}

Please don't bump your posts, especially when the post is only a few hours old - people are not on here 24/7, and doing so is inconsiderate to everyone else here asking questions whose question is as important as yours. Doing so could also make contributors think you have already received help, thus they might not even view your post. I would also recommend reading the links in my signature entitled Getting Help and SSCCE, in other words clarify your post to ask a specific question, which is much easier to respond to
