Hi there. I'm very new to the programming world and all its neat little tricks. Basically, I'm taking a course called Intro to Programming, where we are learning Java. We just started spring quarter, so I have not been taught many things. Some things we have learned include ints, doubles, strings, and whileloops (whileloops being the latest).

I have this homework assignment that requires me to create a class Anagram and methods getWord, makeAnagram, and makePuzzle. I have successfully created a method called getWord, which gets a word from a "dictionary" of words that I have assigned (namely the 50 states for this assignment). *Our teacher basically handed this to us, so nothing hard on my part*

The problem I have however, is making an anagram from this word. Our teacher gave us this code, which is supposed to get a random word, or integer in this case.

I understand that this section is not a 'do my homework' or anything of that sort. I am not asking you to complete my homework. I can figure it out myself, but I'm at a roadblock. We're supposed to use substrings and I guess append a random letter from getWord to the result. We have to use a whileloop to complete this, but I don't know how to pull this off. I get the concept, but I don't exactly know how to put this down in code. I tried looking at random sources online but was unable to find any.

Oh well, thanks for the help anyways. We don't really know how to "shuffle" letters yet. I'm supposed to use substrings, whileloops to complete this task =\.

return += string.substr(random int from 1-string length);
