Added on line 17 what I think its asking me. However, it just says, "Bummer, please add a new private int field named 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;
}
private int lapsDriven() {
}
public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
return barCount == 0;
}
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
return MAX_BARS == barCount;
}
}

1,905 PointsIn the question it is actually saying to declare the member variable " private int lapsDriven " not the method . So the program will look like:
class GoKart { public static final int MAX_BARS = 8; private String color; private int barCount; private int lapsDriven; // member variable private
public GoKart(String color) { this.color = color; }
public String getColor() { return color; }
public void charge() { barCount = MAX_BARS; } public boolean isBatteryEmpty() { return barCount == 0; }
public boolean isFullyCharged() { return MAX_BARS == barCount; }
}
