How to reference non-static variable name from static context?

Question

I am trying to write a code that lets the user enter a team name. Here is my code:

public class Team {
    public String name;

    public static void main(Strin         


        

Answer 1

static methods do not allow to use the non-static variables directly because non-static/instance variables are initialized in memory on object creation. Hence you need to create an object of the the class and then use the variable. Do something like this:

Team teamObj = new Team();
//now access name variable using teabObj instance
teamObj.name = tn.nextLine();
