21,074 PointsYou have to change the way the method "charge()" works. You have to use a while loop inside that method that checks if is not "isFullyCharged()", if that conditions passes you are going to increment the variable called "mBarsCount". You can do it like this:
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 hope that helps a little bit
