Marcus green exam 1 Question 30

[Milind Deodhar]

public class MyClass1 {
public static void main(String argv[]){ }
/*Modifier at XX */ class MyInner {}
}
What are the valid modifiers at XX
the options are
public
private
static
friend.
The answer says that public, static and private are valid, but I think the local inner classes cannot have any access modifiers as they are local to method.
I even tried to compile and it gives an error
Am I correct?

The inner class here is not local to a method. Look at the line above and you will see that main has {} after it so MyInner is not part of method main.
Have to be careful to look at the code closely, this is an easy thing to miss.
