1,905 PointsWhile creating a method name isFullyCharged() to set the current bar count to the maximum charge, i am getting this ?
// Task two class GoKart { public static final int MAX_BARS = 8; private String color; private int barCount;
public GoKart(String color) { this.color = color; }
public String getColor() { return color; }
public void charge() { barCount = MAX_BARS; } public boolean isBatteryEmpty() { isBatteryReallyEmpty = barCount == 0; return isBatteryReallyEmpty; } public boolean isFullyCharged() { isBatteryFullyCharged = MAX_BARS; return isBatteryFullyCharged; }
// Task one throwing error
class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String color;
private int barCount;
public GoKart(String color) {
this.color = color;
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
public void charge() {
barCount = MAX_BARS;
}
public boolean isBatteryEmpty()
{
isBatteryReallyEmpty = barCount == 0;
return isBatteryReallyEmpty;
}
public boolean isFullyCharged()
{
isBatteryFullyCharged = MAX_BARS;
return isBatteryFullyCharged;
}

42,386 PointsHi Varun, the isFullyCharged()
method should be returning a boolean
value, based on the value of MAX_BARS
. If the current barCount
is equal too MAX_BARS
it should return true
otherwise false
.
public boolean isFullyCharged()
{
boolean isBatteryFullyCharged = barCount == MAX_BARS;
return isBatteryFullyCharged;
}
