So my issue is that I have most of my code set up, except the loops I have tried always seem to iterate extra times, throwing off the correct/incorrect count. I have been stuck trying different combinations of while and for loops and this was the last straw. Any help or ideas on how I can get it in the right direction would be really appreciated. I am a newbie so my code may be sloppy or whatever but as long as it works.Subclass for getting input
package hangman;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Hangman {
private String word;
public void setWord() {
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter the secret word: (Under 7 letters)");
this.word = scan.nextLine();
this.word = word;
}
public String getWord() {
return this.word;
}
}
