Java Primitive Parameter Behavior: Pass-by-Value Explained

Java passes primitive parameters by value: changes inside methods affect only the local copy. Learn the common mistake and when to use return values instead.

Understanding Java Object Parameter Behavior

Java passes object references by value. Learn why mutating an object inside a method affects the caller, why reassigning the parameter does not, and when defensive copies protect your APIs.

Java Pass by Reference Myth: Why Java Uses Pass by Value

Explains why Java always passes arguments by value, how object references are copied, and why mutation affects callers while reassignment does not.
