Val cannot be reassigned compile time error in kotlin function solved

Hi friends,

I was writing a kotlin function.I used the keyword val as shown below

fun main() {

    println("Hello, world!")

    // Hello, world!

    val subscribers = 500

    subscribers=600

}

When i execute the above code,i got an error as shown below

Val cannot be reassigned

It means ,  when we run the line  val subscribers = 500, the local variable subscribers is assigned with the value 500.Then in the next line when we execute, subscribers=600,we are trying to reassign the local variable subscribers with the value 600.

Actually In Kotlin val declares final, read only, reference. We can can not reassign such variables with new values.So we got the error message as 

Val cannot be reassigned

How can we solve Val cannot be reassigned error in Kotlin

By using var instead of val in kotlin, we can resolve the error.Kindly check below example

fun main() {

    println("Hello, world!")

    // Hello, world!

    var subscribers = 500

    subscribers=600

}

Here we used var,so we can reassign the local variable subscribers any number of times

So i hope you understood the reason behind the error Val cannot be reassigned

Thanks
