Solution

The code you've written seems to be in Java, but it contains an error. In Java, you cannot declare a variable as static inside a method. The static keyword in Java is used in the context of a class rather than methods. A static method belongs to the class rather than the object of a class. A static variable gets memory only once in the class area at the time of class loading.

Here's the corrected version of your code:

class StaticData {   
    static int data = 0; // Declare static variable outside the method

    public static void main(String args[]) {       
        System.out.println(value());   
    }   

    static int value() {       
        return data;   
    }
}

In this corrected version, the static variable data is declared outside the value() method, but still within the StaticData class. This makes data a static class variable, which is accessible by static methods in the class. The value() method then simply returns the value of data.
