Here's a hint: read your textbook. I don't know Java, but here's basically what I'd do in C++:

(1) Make a BagOfScrabbleTiles

I guess this would be my main class. It's constructor would initialize how many of each piece it is supposed to have. Oh yeah, each piece might be a structure or another class.

(2) Print the bag (use the toString method that you have written.)

Not sure what method you were supposed to have written, but I'm guessing that the letter and its value are two members of each tile object, and toString changes it to a string like the ones they have (eg, "[A_1]").

(3) Take a tile from this bag (using an inherited method.)

Ok, I guess I should read the instructions to find out what is inheritting what...no! That's YOUR job I'll let you handle that one.

(4) 'Print' this tile (using the toString method of the ScrabbleTile class)

I'm guessing print just prints the string that I mentioned above. Print just creates a string using toString, and then displays it with whatever IO Java has.

(5) Take another 74 tiles from the bag (don't do anything with them.)

Just take one tile 74 times in a loop, I'm guessing.

(6) Print the bag again (use the toString method that you have written.)

Just another loop, except you print tiles instead of taking them off of the pile.

Now that wasn't that hard, was it?

Wow, how'd that get printed twice, with over half-an-hour in between? And considering that I went to bed at 10:30
