Unable to access a method's local variables outside of the method in Java

Question

I am new to Java and am trying to access method variables outside of the method, but it doesn\'t work.

Code is below:

Answer 1

Because a and b are local variables. If you want to access to them in your main method, you need to modify your code. For example :

public class methodacess {
       private static int a;
       private static int b;

       public static void minus(){   
           methodacess obj =new methodacess();
           a=10;
           b=15;    
       }   

       public static void main (String[] args){     
           int c = b - a;    
       }   
}
