Thread: Help me understand what the print out sequence is please

public class Sequence { 
Sequence() { System.out.print("c "); } 
{ System.out.print("y "); } 
public static void main(String[] args) { 
new Sequence().go(); 
} 
void go() { System.out.print("g "); } 
static { System.out.print("x "); } 
}

so that's the code and the print out sequence is xycg .....what is it that is driving the sequence output to do it in this order?

thanks

that is a sample question on a java certification test.....are you saying that this code is not written out properly even though it runs correctly?

The funny thing is, Norm, I got that sample question from Oracle lol. That's a sample pull straight from their website for SE7 programmer exam lol So if that's the way they're going to formulate their questions....they're just making it harder for the person taking the tests.

The output will be :
x c g
First the static block will print, then the constructor, and finally the go() will print
