# Scope In the definition of a static method you can use variables like normal and you can reference other static fields and methods. ```java,no_run class ScopeExample { static final int CAN_ACCESS = 3.14; static void canCall() { } static void doStuff() { canCall(); IO.println(ScopeExample.CAN_ACCESS); } } ``` But you cannot access any non-static methods or fields. They are not in scope. ```java,no_run,does_not_compile class ScopeExample2 { final int CANNOT_ACCESS = 3.14; void cannotCall() { } static void doStuff() { cannotCall(); IO.println( CANNOT_ACCESS ); } } ```
