This is the error
./GoKart.java:30: error: illegal start of expression throws new IllegalArgumentException(message); ^ 1 error
class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String color;
private int barCount;
private int lapsDriven;
public GoKart(String color) {
this.color = color;
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
public void charge() {
barCount = MAX_BARS;
}
public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
return barCount == 0;
}
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
return MAX_BARS == barCount;
}
public void drive() {
drive(1);
String message = "You cannot take more laps";
if(lapsDriven > barCount){
throws new IllegalArgumentException(message);
}
}
public void drive(int laps) {
lapsDriven += laps;
barCount -= laps;
}
}
