Java, a return method which I cannot understand
public String getCar(int marvel){
}
I cannot understand how to correctly write the return method. I am pretty much new at Java and tried searching for it on google everywhere, but couldn't find an example like that. I cannot return marvel, because it has to be from type String. Well yea, what else could I possibly return in this case or should I convert marvel into String? Thanks in advance!

We can't know what the method is supposed to do. All we know is that it must return a String. A valid (technically) implementation would bereturn "hello";. Is it the right string to return? We don't know, since you haven't said what the method should do. The method seems to indicate that you need to return a car, and that the car to return depends on the marvel passed as argument. But we have no idea of what a marvel is or how and where to find its car.

Well before that I have public String getCar()(NOTE: without int marvel in the brackets) in another class which returns car from type String. Now I have to write the same method with (int marvel) in the brackets in another class. So yea I am not sure what is supposed to happen

You can't return a int value here because the method's return type is String. So you can either return the String value of the int marvel like here,
public String getCar(int marvel) {
return String.valueOf(marvel);
}
Or change your method's return type to int and then return then int value like here,
public int getCar(int marvel) {
return marvel;
}
