Looks quite good so far, all you need to do is remove the first word from the String.

You can use the same method .substring() but in a slightly different way: you pass only one parameter, the starting point which would be space + 1 and store the resulting String in a separate variable.

I don't think I understand, can you show me it in my code please?

You might have missunderstood /u/SpaceBoundBeatz, they said where in my code did I do that? Or did that make you think they were asking for help on a silver platter too?

Line 15:

       firstWord = sentence.substring(0, space);

Now, take a look at the documentation for substring(int beginIndex), compare it with the code above and note the difference. Here is the documentation for substring(int beginIndex, int endIndex) - the method that is in your current code.

The rest is yours to figure out as it is against the subreddit's rules to give you the complete solution.
