Seems right but not working

Adding a constuctor but cant tell why its not working because the app isnt working properly

Public GoKart( String color) { mcolor = color ; }

GoKart.java 
public class GoKart {
  private String mColor = "red";

  public String getColor() {
    return mColor;
  }
}

If this is exactly what you are typing "Public GoKart( String color) { mcolor = color ; }" then it is because the "public" access modifier should be lowercase and mColor should be camel case, not lowercase.
