i did it the same way for the first task but not working
class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String color;
private int barCount;
public int isBatteryEmpty;
public int isFullyCharged;
public GoKart(String color) {
this.color = color;
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
public boolean isBatteryEmpty(){
if (barCount ==0){
return true;}
}
if(!barCount == 0){
return false;}
}
}
public boolean isFullyCharged(){
if (barCount == 0){

}
}

14,957 Points public boolean isBatteryEmpty(){
if (barCount ==0){
return true;} That is one } too many
}
if(!barCount == 0){ //you can't say !barCount when barCount is an int
return false;} // That is one } too many
}
}
//Same mistakes in this method as above
public boolean isFullyCharged(){
if (barCount == 0){
return true;}
if(!barCount == 0){
return false;}
}
}
These function can be written like this instead:
public boolean isBatteryEmpty(){
return barCount == 0
}
public boolean isFullyCharged(){
return barCount == MAX_BARS;
}
