1,961 PointsI keep being asked to redo task one after I input this
Title. Every time I input the code here, it tells me my task one is no longer passing. Task one was asking me to make a private int field for lapsDriven.
class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String color;
private int barCount;
public GoKart(String color) {
this.color = color;
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
public void charge() {
barCount = MAX_BARS;
}
public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
return barCount == 0;
}
private int lapsDriven;
public void drive() {
lapsDriven = =1;
}
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
return MAX_BARS == barCount;
}
}

private int lapsDriven;
public void drive() {
lapsDriven = =1;
}
From what I understand, the challenge asks you to use shorthand to increment lapsDriven. Take a look at the syntax for that. Also, your lapsDriven field would probably be better grouped with the rest of the private fields (at the top). Good luck! :)
