2,761 PointsAdding MAX_BARS for Go Karts
I need to add 8 bars (max) for the Go Karts, but something's not right here. Can somebody help me with this problem?
class GoKart {
public final int MAX_BARS = 8;
final private String color;
public GoKart(String color) {
this.color = color;
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
}

230,688 PointsWhen you test your code, the challenge gives you back this message: "Bummer: Make sure that you've marked the MAX_BARS field with the static keyword. This will add the field to the GoKart class, for all GoKarts"
So just add "static" to your declaration to pass the challenge.
