Java Declare Multiple Variables


Declare Many Variables

To declare more than one variable of the same type, you can use a comma-separated list:

Example

Instead of writing:

int x = 5;
    int y = 6;
    int z = 50;
    System.out.println(x + y + z);
    

You can simply write:

int x = 5, y = 6, z = 50;
    System.out.println(x + y + z);

Note: Declaring many variables in one line is shorter, but writing one variable per line can sometimes make the code easier to read.


One Value to Multiple Variables

You can also assign the same value to multiple variables in one line:

Example

int x, y, z;
    x = y = z = 50;
    System.out.println(x + y + z);
