thanks

thanks for the hint. I tried to correct it please let me know if I'm in the right direction in writing my method in general, is its logic correct , and then which parts need to be rewritten and hints for them. in this sway I can understand better

public class check{
public static void main(String[] args){
String a = "abc d";
String b= "abcd fe";

System.out.println(compareString(a,b));

}

public static boolean compareString(String a, String b){
// here i try to declare array size i dont know if i can do it in this way ?
String c[]= new String [a.length];
String d[]= new String [b.length];
int i=0;
int j=0;
// here i try to split them and store each char in arrays
for ( i=0; i<=a.length;i++){
String c[i] =a.split[" "];
}
for (j=0;j<=b.length;b++){
String d [j]=b.split()[" "];
}

// here i tried to count matches and add them up plus counting the numer of words
int matches=0;
int numberOfWords=0;
for (i=0;i<=c.length();i++){
for( j=0;j<=d.length;j++){
if (c[i]==d[j]){
matches++;
}
numberOfWords++;
}
}
// here is it correct to write it this way ?
if (match/numberOfwords*100>0.9*100){
return true;
{
return fales;
}
}

}
}


// I tried to fix the errors but it gives another erros ..
2 errors found:
File: C:\Users\Acer\Desktop\check.java [line: 17]
Error: Syntax error on token "i", delete this token
File: C:\Users\Acer\Desktop\check.java [line: 20]
Error: Syntax error on token "j", delete this token

thanks for the explanation , below I tried to improve it.

thanks again for the explanation. it was clear and helpful.

how can we rewrite it without using array ?

I have not learnt array yet. and your guess is not correct. I have studied the topic and I know since it is new I need to practice more to grasp the concepts. I'm also here to get help in my coding not being judged.

thanks a lot for debugging it ( is it the correct to say like this ?) the only thing is I cannot use array.

thanks for the link, however, I'm beginner, and I just learnt conditional loop and a bit of string very basics.. not anything else, the goal of the exercise is to write a method and call it. we can not use scanner in the method but we ca verify the result ( which should be Boolean type) through the main method. so I need to write a program to validate a password with the basics.

thanks for the explanation . when I compile the first part which is check if it has 10 character it gives a message that it must return Boolean type .. so I still stuck in the fist part of the question..
