hi,
shadow variable nothing but, declaring a variable within the local scope/method with the same name as in global scope.

while running, vm always considers local variable.

Example:
public class TestShadow
{
int size =10;

public void method(int size)
{
size = 30;
syso(" I'm in local"+size)
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
int size =100;
TestShadow ts = new TestShadow();
ts.method(size);
System.out.println(" I'm in main"+ts.size--);
System.out.println(" local method value"+size);
}
}
