Is it a good practice to change arguments in Java

Question

Suppose I am writing a method foo(int i) in Java.
Since i is passed by value it is safe to change it in foo. For example

Answer 1

It's merely a personal opinion, but I think it can be confusing for other people that may want to use the original parameter value later in that code, and may not notice that it has already been changed.

Plus, it's cheap to simply create another variable and assign it the modified value (i.e., int j = i + 1).
