compiler error

I keep getting errors here, but I dont know why and I'm not even sure what the question specifically wants me to do.

Thanks

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() {
    mBarsCount = MAX_ENERGY_BARS;
  }

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

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

  while(!isFullyCharged()){
    mBarsCount++;
  }

}

Hey Asad! You've got the right idea, it just needs to be put inside the charge() method:

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