What is wrong with my print statement .

or are you asking why the IterativeFact() method doesn't print? That is because it isn't called in this code.

Sir , I am trying to call a private method inside the same class within main() I am trying

System.out.println("The factorial of a number is "+ fact);

get printed from

public static void main(String[]args)

Tried again as follows please review

import java.util.Scanner;
public class IterativeFactorial{
    public static void main(String[]args){
    Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.println(" Enter number: ");
    int num =sc.nextInt();

    IterativeFactorial myfact = new IterativeFactorial();
    myfact.IterativeFact(num);


    System.out.println("Factorial of a number " +fact);


    }
    private static int IterativeFact(int num){
   // System.out.println("Factorial of a number " +fact);
        int fact = 1;
        for(int i=num;i>0;i--){
            fact = fact*i;

        }

        return 1;
    }
}

umm. What are the task instructions. This code is different than what you shared previously. The problems here: Line 8-9: the method is static, you don't need an object to call a static method line 9: the return value of the method is not saved in main line 12: the variable 'fact' does not exist in main line 24: the return value of the method is 1 no matter what number is entered You may want to read up on how to implement and use methods in Java.

Your kind Mentoring helped me to resolve the issue . Thank you so much.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class IterativeFactorial{
    public static void main(String[]args){

    Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.println(" Enter number: ");
    int num =sc.nextInt();

    int factorial = IterativeFact(num);

    System.out.println("The factorial of a number is "+ factorial);


    }

    public static int IterativeFact(int num){

        int fact = 1;
        for(int i=num;i>0;i--){
            fact = fact*i;

        }

        return fact;
    }
}
