Yes. Suppose that your closestPair method returns a double. Then you can make it a public static method by using: public static double closestPair(XYPoint[] ptsByX, XYPoint[] ptsByY){ Put your method here… Also, of course you can pick whatever variable names you want for the two arrays. } Then, for example, your call from Lab1.java would look like: double ans = FastClosestPair.
