3,811 Pointsno matter how i write this i always get task 1 is no longer passing.
Great! Now let's create a similar method named isFullyCharged that checks to see if the current bar count is at the maximum charge.
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() {
if (barCount == 0) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
}
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
return barsCount == MAX_BARS;
}
}

1,997 PointsAnswer is correct but due to Incorrect closure i.e an additional "}" after isBatteryEmpty method, it gives a compilation error. Suggest taking out that extra "}" and it works fine!
public boolean isBatteryEmpty() { if (barCount == 0) { return true; } else { return false; } } } public boolean isFullyCharged() { return barCount == MAX_BARS; }
Correct Answer:
public boolean isBatteryEmpty() { if (barCount == 0) { return true; } else { return false; } } public boolean isFullyCharged() { return barCount == MAX_BARS; }
