hello-world: remove the reference to `UnsupportedOperationException` in instructions

Open andrerfcsantos opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

The instructions for the "Hello World" exercise tell the student to remove an UnsupportedOperationException:

https://github.com/exercism/java/blob/9abbe2a744625d698691249714d992fbdc17662c/exercises/practice/hello-world/.docs/instructions.append.md?plain=1#L52-L59

However, currently neither the tests or the solution contain an exception, so these instructions are not relevant anymore and must be removed to reflect the current stub files provided.

Hi @andrerfcsantos

If this issue is still open, I'd love to try to tackle it.

Hi, is this issue open? I was getting updates of this issue being open, but it is stated that a fix has been merged. Can you close if this issue if the problem has been resolved.

I just solved the exercise and the error is still there. Stated UnsupportedOperationException in text but is not found in initial code block

I'll close this issue, as the main goal of fixing the instructions to not use the exception was achieved.

However, it seems there's a reference to the UnsupportedOperationException in the table of contents for the exercise, but I made a separate issue for that #2167

The table of contents issue is now fixed by #2166 which was already merged.

@ShadowZone If there are other places where the instructions should be updated that I'm not seeing, please feel free to create a new issue or PR.
