3,141 PointsGetter method - Formatting Error
Hi, I added the getter method to make the private variable "color" accessible. My code shows Error in formatting getter method. Please help me with my code. Thanks
class GoKart {
private String color = "red";
public String getcolor() {
return color;
System.out.printf("The colour is %s \n", color);
}
}

Also the property after get should start with a capital C so getColor()
public String getColor() {
System.out.printf("The colour is %s \n", color);
return color;
}
