5,148 PointsWhy isn't my method working ?
I have to create a method and return a boolean value if the battery is empty . So if the battery is = to 0 return as true. Why doesn't my code work :(((((
public class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String mColor;
private int mBarsCount;
public GoKart(String color) {
mColor = color;
mBarsCount = 0;
}
public String getColor() {
return mColor;
}
public void charge() {
mBarsCount = MAX_BARS;
}
}
public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
return mBarsCount == 0;
}

Move it upwards to be underneath the charge
method.
