Why this code output is 8?

Question

public static class Person{

int age= 8;

public Person(int age ){
System.out.print (this.age);
}
}
public static main class(String []Args)

Person p=new Person(2);
}

Answer 1

When instantiating the object p like this "Person p=new Person(2);", you are calling the "Person constructor, which takes an int parameter, but you are printing "System.out.print (this.age);", where the "this.age" refers to the class variable with the value of 8 instead of the parameter. To print the desired "2" just remove the "this." and leave the "age" variable, which would be the parameter. Hope this explanation helped you Caty.

Answer 2

Gracias Roberto. A veces me confunde el término static.

Answer 3

public Person (){
int age;
age=this.age;
System.out.print (age);
}
------
Person p= new Person ();
Person p1= new Person (2);
//82
