10,365 PointsHi Thomas,
public class GoKart {
// your fields are perfect
// no need to worry about
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private int mBarsCount;
private String mColor;
public GoKart(String color) {
mColor = color;
mBarsCount = 0; // <<<<<<<<<<<< initialize mBarsCount to 0 inside the constructor;
}
public String getColor() {
return mColor;
}
// here we need to create a charge() method that
// increments mBarsCount to MAX_BARS (8)
// this method returns no value, so it is void
public void charge() {
// so mBarsCount is equals to your constant variable
// you declared in the Task 1
mBarsCount = MAX_BARS;
}
}
Your code:
// I think here you are trying to create a constructor
// the name of the constructor must be the same as of the class (GoKart, not mColor)
public mColor(String color) {
mColor = color;
}
public mBars(String MAX_BARS) {
// this should be in the constructor
// no need to create a new method
// and give it a parameter MAX_BARS
mBarsCount = 0;
}
I hope I could help a little bit
Let me know if you need more help
