I don't understand what's wrong the title is the message it's giving me. Please include code and explanation. Thanks in advance
public class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String mColor;
private int mBarsCount;
public boolean mIsBatteryEmpty() {
return mBarsCount == 0;
}
public GoKart(String color) {
mColor = color;
mBarsCount = 0;
}
public String getColor() {
return mColor;
}
public void charge() {
mBarsCount = MAX_BARS;
}
}

Treehouse Moderator 11,077 PointsYou mistyped the method name, it is supposed to be isBatteryEmpty, you types mIsBatteryEmpty. Wrong spelling.

607 PointsThe isBatteryEmpty method is just a boolean. It would look like this: public boolean isBatteryEmpty() { return mBarsCount == 0; }
