use of ++ increment of mBarsCount

public class GoKart { public static final int MAX_ENERGY_BARS = 8; private String mColor; private int mBarsCount;

public GoKart(String color) { mColor = color; mBarsCount = 0; }

public String getColor() { return mColor; }

public void charge() { while (!isFullyCharged()) { mBarsCount ++; } }

public boolean isBatteryEmpty() { return mBarsCount == 0; }

public boolean isFullyCharged() { return mBarsCount == MAX_ENERGY_BARS; } i dont wats wrong here

GoKart.java 
public class GoKart {
  public static final int MAX_ENERGY_BARS =8;
  private String mColor;
  private int mBarsCount;

  public GoKart(String color) {
    mColor = color;
    mBarsCount = 0;
  }

  public String getColor() {
    return mColor;
  }

  public void charge() {
    while (!isFullyCharged()){
      mBarsCount ++;
    }
  }

  public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
    return mBarsCount == 0;
  }

  public boolean isFullyCharged() {
 return mBarsCount == MAX_ENERGY_BARS;
  }}
