How do I fix the error where I cannot make a static reference to a non-static input field?

Question

I am learning java. I wrote the following code but I am getting this error \"cant make a static reference to a non static input field\" in Arrayfunction(), when I try to take in

Answer 1

either make your Scanner static and use it inside the static methods or create an instance of the class an access scanner from your static method.

static Scanner input= new Scanner(System.in);
public static void Arrayfunction(int array[][])
{          
            System.out.println("Enter a number");
            array[i][j]=input.nextInt();// error
 }

OR

Scanner input= new Scanner(System.in);
public static void Arrayfunction(int array[][])
{
            System.out.println("Enter a number");
            array[i][j]=new MultidimArrays().input.nextInt();// error
      }
