Java Java Objects (Retired) Harnessing the Power of Objects Methods and Constants

Anyone can help me here? What's wrong and how I can solve this problem ?

Finally, let's add a method named charge. It should be public and return nothing. When called it should set mBarsCount to the value of the constant you declared in Task 1.

Bummer! There is a compiler error. Please click on preview to view your syntax errors!

GoKart.java 
public class GoKart {
  private String mColor;
  private int mBarsCount;
  public static final int MAX_CHARGE = 8;

  public void setColor(String color) {
    mColor = color;            
  } 
  }
  public void Charge() {
    mBarsCount = MAX_CHARGE;
  }
  public String getColor() {
    return mColor;
  } 
}

Hi Alex - You have an extra closing brace right before the charge method. Also, you've Capitalized the method name. That doesn't give you an error but it's not good practice. Also, the challenge asks you to initialize mBarsCount to zero in the constructor.

You should double check your code before asking a question.
