    Post Assignment Help.

    So, here the question !

    Write a Java code of the method startsWithCount that takes an array of strings words and a String S. The method should return an integer that is the number of strings that starts with S.

    For example if:
    words = { "All", "Arab", "size", "Almond", "Allowed", "here"} and S= "All", then the method should return 2

    This is what I have tried - This is the following answer right. Need help?

    PHP Code:
    public class StringwithCount {
    public static 
    void main (String[]args) {
    String strings[] = { "All""Arab""size""Almond""Allowed""here"};
    String output"";

    for ( 
    int i  =  0;  words.lengthi++) { 
                if (
    words[i].startsWith("s")) 
                    
    + +; 
            }

    can you explain what problems you are having?

    The assignment says to define a method. You should start with the definition for the header of the method.

    The posted code doesn't compile so it wouldn't be a correct answer.

    When the code compiles, executes and prints out the right answer, then it might be ok.
