Question

This is a debugging question I am stuck on -

The files provided in the code editor to the right contain syntax and/or logic errors. In each case, determine and fix the problem, remove all syntax and coding errors, and run the program to ensure it works properly.

This is the code. I have modified some already but I am unsure how to modify the rest - 
// Converts a string to lowercase, and 
// displays the string's length
// as well as a count of letters
public class DebugSeven4
{
   public static void main(String[] args)
   {
      String aString = "HELP!! I need to get 37 things DONE today!!";
      int numLetters = 0;
      int stringLength = aString.Length();
      System.out.println("In all lowercase, the sentence is: ");
      for(int i = 0; i < stringLength; i++)
      {
         char ch = Character.toTheLowerCase(aString.charAt(i));
         System.out.print(ch);
         if(Character.isLetter(ch))
            numLetters--;
      }
      System.out.println();
      System.out.println ("The number of CHARACTERS in the string is " + stringLength);
      System.out.println("The number of LETTERS is " + numLetters);
   }
}
