How to check barCount?

So I'm doing the exercise where we set the GoKart to fill with MAX_BARS which I did but now the exercise is asking me to create a private field called barCount that tracks how many bars the GoKart currently has but you DID NOT teach this! You only showed how to fill the bar count!

This is the link to the video right before the barCount assignment.

What you are being asked to do is very similar to the video. But instead of MAX_PEZ, pezCount and fill() you will be using MAX_BARS, barCount and charge() Creating the private field is at the very being of the video and is done by declaring:

private int pezCount;

For the challenge you will have:

private int barCount;
