    Question code for full Name

    Hello, i have a class "Person" with the attributes:

    firstname - a String first name
    surname - a String surname

    But i need to know how to write a method for fullname; which returns a string containing firstname and surname separated by a space.

    Its probably really simple, but i dont know how to? any suggestions?

    public class person{
    String firstname, surname;

    String getfullname(){
    return (firstname + " " +secondname)
    }

    }

    you need not write a method to get full name (if not required for other reasons) instead you can use a variable :

    String fullname=firstname+ " " + surname;

    this will work just as well ;-0)
