In your CharList constructor this refers to the CharList class, which doesn't have a setCharacter() method (CharNode does). Also, when you call a method in java, you need to pass the parameter, e.g. SetFoo(newFoo) not setFoo() = newFoo.
Your set character method is probably in your node, not in your list. You also need to be moving your pointer along. What I mean is, where do you ever "go to the next node"?
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
