In this code the main method calls the Scanner first and then calls the x() method.How can I call the x() 1st and then Scanner?

Question

import java.util.*;

public class Main
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
program x = new program();
x.x();
}
}
class program
{
Scanner x = new Scanner(System.in);
void x(){
System.out.println("hi");
}
String b = x.nextLine();
}

Answer 1

Use this:

void x(){
System.out.println("hi");
String b = x.nextLine();
}

But if i were you i should rename method name, the scanner reference variable to something else, if you do bigger projects and nameing it like that.. it will really confuse you

Answer 2

This would be helpfull

void x(){
System.out.println("hi");
String b = x.nextLine();
}
