    Default "Can not find symbol" when I use int and scanner

    package javaapplication1;
     
    import java.util.Scanner;
     
     
     
     
    public class Scan {
     
        public static void main(String args[])
        {
            Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
     
            int = a, b;
     
            System.out.print("A = ");
            a = scan.nextInt();
     
            System.out.print("B = ");
            b = scan.nextInt();
     
            System.out.print(a + " + " + b + " = " + (a + b));
     
        }

    Can you copy the full text of the error message and paste it here so we can see what symbol the compiler can not find a declaration for?

    The text in the posted image is too small to read.

     int = a, b;
    There should not be an = sign when trying to declare variables.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
