What am I doing wrong and why?
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 boolean isBatteryEmpty(){
return mBarsCount==0;
}
public void charge() {
while (!isFullyCharged()) {
mBarsCount++;
}
}
}

Almost there. Just a few things:
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 boolean isBatteryEmpty(){
return mBarsCount==0;
}
//change this back to the way it was where it just assigns MAX_BARS to mBarsCount
public void charge() {
while (!isFullyCharged()) {
mBarsCount++;
}
}
//declare a method named isFullyCharged that returns a boolean true
// if mBarsCount is equal to MAX_BARS
}
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Chris
