Definition
Variables are identifiers associated with values. They are declared by writing the variable's type and name, and are optionally initialized in the same statement by assigning a value. Local variables are visible only in the method or block they are declared. Local variables are created when a method is called and destroyed when the method exits.Local Variable Example Program
public class LocalVariableDemo{
public void add(){
int num = 0;
num = num + 7;
System.out.println("The number is : " + num);
System.out.println("This number is inside a method and hence has its scope only inside the method.");
}
public static void main(String args[]){
LocalVariableDemo obj = new LocalVariableDemo();
obj.add();
}
}
Sample Output
Output is:
The number is : 7
This number is inside a method and hence has its scope only inside the method.
