Thanks for the help. After figuring out how to setup the other class I got it to work!

I am working on the SortNames assignment and can sort the names by the first name but am stuck trying to sort by the last name of the ArrayList.
Does anyone have any hints?

I agree. The AlarmClockRadio object has three objects, an alarm, a clock and a radio whose methods and properties could call be contained in one object.

Thanks for the tips... I used the substring method in the API to split up the string.

Anybody got some hints on what String method to use to determine if there is a dash "-" in a string? I am stuck on converting strings that have two parts (like twenty-one) from a String to an integer.

That's funny I get the same number (1065353216) as well.

Assignment: Java-4b Say
Attempt: 2

I was concatenating strings too. To eliminate confusion, I just used print statements instead of println. I didnt know until reading Bill's response that it was a performance issue.

Hey Bill, Just wanted to put up my end of the bargain since you nitpicked my first assignment.
I'll send you another attempt at 1a.
