What should I do here?
public class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String mColor;
private int mBarsCount;
public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
return mBarsCount == 0;
}
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
return MAX_BARS = 8;
}
public GoKart(String color) {
mColor = color;
mBarsCount = 0;
}
public String getColor() {
return mColor;
}
public void charge() {
mBarsCount = MAX_BARS;
}
}

public boolean isBatteryEmpty()
{
if (mBarsCount == 0)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
That way you're explicitly telling the program to return true if it's 0. I don't believe mBarsCount == 0 will return a boolean.
