There is no keyword as "option" in Java and whatever you have watched in the video may be is a program where he might have declared a variable option. How are we the people on QA suppose to know what it means or what it does?

Farrux To`laganov Please see in your second reply, first line: char option = '\0'; And a few lines underneath: option = scanner.next.charAt(0); And also below that line: switch(option) { // more codes here } Can you see now what Avinesh meant when he said "he might have declared a variable option"?

Farrux To`laganov For the next time please save the code in your profile and share the code link instead. Especially if the code is big (like more than 15 lines). It is more comfortable for everyone to review a code rather than raw text like that. Hope you understand. Follow this guide so your next question can gain better responses 👍 https://www.sololearn.com/Discuss/333866/?ref=app https://www.sololearn.com/post/74857/?ref=app

char option = '\0' option = scanner.next().charAt(0); option is a variable, not an element.

I think this doubt can be solved if you can share the code with the people here, or at least a portion of the code where you saw that 'option' word is being used. I guess that would be the best way to clear up ambiguity in the question, and prevent misunderstanding Farrux To`laganov

Well char is variable and option is the name of the variable. Variables are containers for storing data values. All java variable must be identified with unique names. These unique names are called identifier. Identifier can be short name (like x and y) or more descriptive name (age, sum, totalValue) Note: it is recommended to use more descriptive name to create Maintainable and understandable code.
