Best Practice?

[MallardsReach]

I have created a method

void getSecond(int secondNum)

and in each of my radio buttons I have the following two pieces of code to return a number to the method both work fine but just wondered which is better practice? First

getSecond(11);

Second

   getSecond(Integer.parseInt(times12.getName()));

There is no "better"; and if you can't explain how the statements differ, then the answer is "11", or "42".

Thanks for the reply Eddy, Glad to hear there is no 'Better' that's good to know. Of course I can explain how they differ, both return a number to the method one returns the name of the radio button it refers to the other returns the number placed in the buttons event. So I will use the one that returns the name of the button as it can eliminate the mistake of returning a number for a different button. But as there is no 'Better' way, then I guess it's how ever the programmer feels on the day.
