Call by reference/ call by value

Question

Java is call by reference or call by value ?

Answer 1

In Java the variables by default are called by reference

Answer 2

java method calls are call by value, if you call any method to pass value those values are copied by local args if you change value of local method args its not reflecting actual value you passed at the time of calling. call by reference means if you call method with args then that value is reflecting then that is call by reference

Answer 3

java follows call by value

Answer 4

Java is pass by value by default. The confusion between by value or by reference stems from how we think Java objects work.
