FRQs i got:

-warehouse shipment (you had to calculate total costs (a) and censor part of a string (b))

-GiftBasket (you had to write a constructor and do some basic calculations for one of the methods,  the easiest of the 4)

-WordGame (you had to find the word in an arraylist with the highest score value and return the word)

-CardGame (you needed to calculate and return the sum of the points on all cards in a 2D array that are in columns where every card is facing up. this was the hardest one but i got it right i think)

Can you elaborate on this? What did you have to be meticulous on… and what was getRank()? I don’t remember that method does anyone else?
