151: Mainline

You can combine several class-variable declarations, as is done in the following example. There, several class variables are declared and initialized for use instead of literal numbers in the movieRating method:

public class Movie { 
 // Define class variables: 
 public static int wScript = 6, wActing = 13, wDirection = 11; 
 // Define movieRating: 
 public static int movieRating (int s, int a, int d) { 
  return wScript * s + wActing * a + wDirection * d; 
 } 
} 

In the example, variable names provide access to the class-variable values, because the variables and the method in which they appear are defined in the same class.
