isFullyCharged

use our new isFullyCharged helper method to changed implementation detail of the charge method use ! symbol and a while loop inside the loop increment mBarsCount

GoKart.java 
public class GoKart {
  public static final int MAX_ENERGY_BARS = 8;
  private String mColor;
  private int mBarsCount;

  public GoKart(String color) {
    mColor = color;
    mBarsCount = 0;
  }

  public String getColor() {
    return mColor;
  }

  public void charge() {
    mBarsCount = MAX_ENERGY_BARS;
  }

  public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
    return mBarsCount == 0;
  }

  public boolean isFullyCharged() {
    return mBarsCount == MAX_ENERGY_BARS;
  }

  if (!isempty()) {
    mBarsCount--;
    wasFullyCharged = true;
  }

  public void charge() {
    while(!isFullyCharged()){
      mBarsCount++;
    }
  }

This is what the text asks you to do.
