Read the original article Hit count: 151

say suppose I have class as :

public class Age {

private int age;

public int getAge() {

return this.age;

}
}

In my Main class I am calling the getAge() method many times.

So I wanted to know is it advisable to call so many times or call once and assign it to some variable and use that variable.

Which is best and why?
