What are the three ways to give data?
Short answer. Initialisation in the code, a parameter in a method call, or run time input from the keyboard.
Which one lets the user decide?
Run time input, using Scanner.
Three ways
| Way | Example |
|---|---|
| Initialisation | int tea = 10; |
| Parameter | show(250) |
| Run time | sc.nextInt() |
Remember
| In the code |
| From a call |
| From the keyboard |
A Java program can get its data in three ways. Initialisation writes the value in code. A parameter receives it in a method call. Run time input comes from the user typing. Remember. In the code. From a call. From the keyboard.
