code explanation

Hi I am reading this document

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/javaOO/QandE/creating-questions.html

And I made following code



and i got following output

a.y = 5
b.y = 6
a.x = 2
b.x = 2
IdentifyMyParts.x = 2

in thrid line output is a.x=2;

As per what i read it should be 1 to there


any explanation?


Thanks

Look at questions 1a and 1b in the link. Do you know what is meant by class and instance variables ? If not you need to go back and review the tutorial.

I know the class variable and instance variable but how output a.x=2; is linked with them?

Not sure what you've been reading, but the output is correct - a.x and b.x are actually the same variable. Can you explain why they are the same, and why -in contrast to that- a.y and b.y are different variables?

got it thanks to both
