How can i use a class's variable in another class?

[Aga^^]

hi guys i am a newbie on java.
I am working on a project: i have 3 classes one of them is laptop, second is desktop and the third one is computer for example. How can i use laptop's variable in computer class?
i m waiting for your answers... thanks

It's impossible to know how to answer your question without more information. A great resource that has helped me and will probably help you is an article entitled How To Ask Questions The Smart Way. It will tell you how to formulate your questions so that the folks here will be better able to answer them.

I suspect though given the names of your classes that laptop extends computer, but again it's impossible to know without more information. If this is the case, then you most definitely do not want computer to use any of laptops methods. If this answer doesn't help you, then please read the link above and provide us with more information. The link will tell you what we need to see.

Term Class

public class Term 
{	
	public int upper;  //polinomun ussunu tanimladim
	public int exponent; //polinomun katsayisi
	
	public Term()  //constructor
	{
		exponent=0;
	}

	public void setUpper(int upper)
	{
		this.upper=upper;    
	}
	
	public void setExponent(int exponent)
	{
		this.exponent=exponent; 
	}
	
	public int getUpper()
	{
		return this.upper;
	}
	
	public int getExponent()
	{
		return this.exponent;
	}
	
	public Term(int upper,int exponent)
	{
		setUpper(upper);
		setExponent(exponent);
	}
	
	public String toString()
	{
	return String.format(
			"#Polynomial# Exponent : %s, Upper : %s",this.exponent,this.upper);	
	}	
}

public class Polynomial
{
	ArrayList<Term> poli=new ArrayList<Term>();
	Term term=new Term();
	
	public int birinci;
	public int ikinci;
	public int ucuncu;

	public int getBirinci()
	{
		return this.birinci;
	}
	
	public int getIkinci()
	{
		return this.ikinci;
	}
	
	public int getUcuncu()
	{
		return this.ucuncu;
	}
}

above the classes are.
I want to display in the console polynomial's exponent (exponent is a variable of term)

which Term? The Term variable? or the Term objects within the arraylist? Either way, the Polynomial object can have a toString method that calls either the term's toString method or using a StringBuilder, builds a String by iterating through the items in the poli ArrayList.

That depends of the task you want to cope. If you need to init var during the whole program activity time you may use static variable...
So we have class A and B... We have var in A and want to access var from B to init A... so we must declare var in B as public to make it accessable from A. Or we must declare var as protected... You need to know more of modificators in Java
First describe your problem in a more specific way :)

ok i get it thanks..

By the way, it's generally a bad idea to make all member variables public.

Not all but you need to )
