631 Pointsit still is passing the first statement.....
I changed the boolean at the bottom to equal "MAX_BARS" but it is still passing the first statement and I cannot find any syntax errors....
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 boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
return barCount == 0;
}
public void charge() {
barCount = MAX_BARS;
}
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
return barCount == MAX_BARS;
}
}
}

I am not sure what the question is ... but maybe this a pointer. What you have here:
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
return barCount == MAX_BARS;
}
is same as
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
if(barCount == MAX_BARS){
return true;
}else{
return false;
}
}
so yes, if barCount == MAX_BARS is true, you will get back a true, else you should get back a false. Both, true and false are boolean values, hence the return type has to be boolean.
Hope this answers your question
