Why isnt my variable recongized within the parameter? (JAVA)

[St4nley]

package pkgdo.dowhile;

public class DoDoWhile {
    //DO WHILE STATEMENT
    /* THIS STATEMENT IS CLAIMING TO ADD COUNT + 1 UNTILL COUNT IS LESS THAN 11
    * IT MUST LOOP ONCE AT LEAST SINCE WHILE IS AT THE BOTTON OF THE CODE*/
   
public static void main(String[] args){
        int count = 1;
        String hello = "word";
       
        do {
            Print("Count is: " + count);
            count++;
          } while (count < 11);
                                      }

   
        static void Print(String echo)  {
        System.out.println(echo);
       

       
        if (count > 8)  {
                  Print("Void NEXT");
}else{
        Print("Continue With Next Terms");
       
 
                        }
       

        }
       

  }

In my if statement the variable count which has been established in my main class isnt being recognized in this instance.
How come?
Thanks!

That code is horribly formatted. You should start with fixing that.

I'm no java expert, I only did a bit in university. But you're only declaring count in main(), not globalising it

public static void main(String[] args){
                int count = 11;
                String hello = "word";
                        if (count > 8)  {
                  Print("Void NEXT");
}else{
        Print("Continue With Next Terms");
       
        do {
            Print("Count is: " + count);
            count++;
          } while (count < 11);
}

                        }
       
static void Print(String echo)  {
        System.out.println(echo);
        }
       
}

Close thread, my logic wasn't correct. The IF Statement must be before the do statement it only makes sense, i thought of this after @m0nsta. replied it made be think of the order of the instances being ran by the compiler. Thanks
