Unsetting variables

Question

How can I unset any variables in Java such that I can reuse by using different type next time?

For example :
String a = "String"
System.out.print(a);
__________//block of code to unset variable 'a'
int a = 5
System.out.print(a);

I meant just like we use function "unset($variable)" in PHP.
Please answer soon !

Answer 1

you cant, as variable a is assigned to data type String. you can convert a string to int using Interger.parseInt(yourString); but the value of your string would have to be "5" and not "five" also you would have to use a new variable

String str = "5";

int a = Integer.parseInt(str);
System.out.print(a);

Or you need String a = null;
Start garbage collection, and after try to new a. Idk can be or dont, try...
