1,121 PointsError: cannot find symbol
So I typed up my code (attached below), and I got an error saying "cannot find symbol"
throw new (it says the missing symbol should be right here) IllegalArgumentExeption("Not enough battery remains."); I can't seem to figure out what symbol is missing, or what is wrong with my code that would cause it to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
public class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String mColor;
private int mBarsCount;
public GoKart(String color) {
mColor = color;
mBarsCount = 0;
}
public String getColor() {
return mColor;
}
public void drive() {
drive(1);
}
public void drive(int laps) {
// Other driving code omitted for clarity purposes
int newCharge=mBarsCount-laps;
if (newCharge <= 0){
throw new IllegalArgumentExeption("Not enough battery remains.");
}
mBarsCount=newCharge;
}
public void charge() {
while (!isFullyCharged()) {
mBarsCount++;
}
}
public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
return mBarsCount == 0;
}
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
return mBarsCount == MAX_BARS;
}
}
