i am having a lot of problems trying to create a Mastermind game. The goal is to implement it and have it print out a game board on the screen that has the previous answer move up as new ones are entered. Also its supposed to keep track of whether you got the colors and position right on the right side of board. Im having problems just implementing the board itself. I cant get it to print out. I know i have to set up my class correctly but im not sure how to go about doing that. Please help. I think i may need to do a constructor for it but since its not actually doing anything but printing out with the users guesses im not sure where to go with it.
