Create a new method named drive that accepts no arguments. It should call the newer drive method passing in a 1 for the default.
class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String color;
private int barCount;
public GoKart(String color) {
this.color = color;
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
public void charge() {
barCount = MAX_BARS;
}
public boolean isBatteryEmpty() {
return barCount == 0;
}
public boolean isFullyCharged() {
return MAX_BARS == barCount;
}
public void drive(int lapsDriven) {
// Other driving code omitted for clarity purposes
barCount -= MAX_BARS;
lapsDriven += barCount;
}

public void drive() {
drive(1);
}

I have already used these lines but it is not going anywhere. public void drive() { drive(1); }
