if (dispenser.isEmpty()) {
System.out.println("It is currently empty.");
}
System.out.println("Loading...");

if (!dispenser.isEmpty()) {
System.out.println("It is no longer empty.");
}
while(dispene.dispense) {

if (dispenser.isEmpty()){
System.out.println("Ate all the PEZ!");

PezDispenser:
public class PezDispenser { public static final int MAX_PEZ = 12; private String mCharacterName; private int mPezCount;
public PezDispenser(String characterName) { mCharacterName = characterName; mPezCount = 0; }
public boolean dispense() { boolean wasDispensed = false; if(!isEmpty()) { mPezCount--; wasDispensed = true; } while(dispene.dispense) { System.out.println("Chomp!) } if return wasDispensed; }
public boolean isEmpty() { return mPezCount == 0; }
