6,133 Pointswhat should i do?
Create a new method named drive that accepts no arguments. It should call the newer drive method passing in a 1 for the default.
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(int barAmount) {
lapsDriven++;
lapsDriven += barAmount;
barCount-= barAmount;
}
public void drive() {
int barAmount = 1;
}
}

method they want you to call the old one (in the same way you normally would call a method) and pass in 1 as the argument. Like this:
public void drive() {
drive(1); // Call drive with 1 as argument
}
