    What would a "printout of class b" look like? What does your code print now?
    Post the program's output and explain what is wrong with it and show what you want the output to look like.

    Default Re: hello

    Is the second line you want for output from the println statement in the b class's max() method?
    To execute the max() method you need to
    1)create an instance of the b class
    and use that to
    2)call the max() method.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Please write new code.
    Sorry, the idea is for you to write the code and to ask us questions when you have a problem.

    Which part(s) are you having problems with?
    1) create instance of the b class
    2)calling the max() method

    Default Re: hello

    Try doing the first step: create an instance of the b class.
    You will need that to be able to call any methods in the b class.


    When you get errors you need to copy and paste the full text here.

    When you post code, wrap your code with
    [code=java]
    <YOUR CODE HERE>
    [/code]
    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Default Re: hello

    Where does the code try to create a new instance of the b class?

    Take a look at the tutorial for some examples:
    Lesson: Object-Oriented Programming Concepts (The Java™ Tutorials > Learning the Java Language)

    When you get errors you need to copy and paste the full text here.

    Default Re: hello

    That looks like you can create an instance of the b class.

    Now try calling the b class's max() method using that new object (j) that the code creates.

    On Windows: To copy the contents of the command prompt window:
    Click on Icon in upper left corner
    Select Edit
    Select 'Select All' - The selection will show
    Click in upper left again
    Select Edit and click 'Copy'

    Paste here.

    Make the class b static by adding static before the word class:
    static class b {

    Default Re: hello

    a$b@cac268
    That is from:
    System.out.println(j);
    It's what is returned from the default toString() method for a class. j is the class reference that was printed.
    The a$b is the name of the class. It says that b is an inner ($) class of the a class.
    The @ separates the class name from the hashcode (cac268) for the class object.
    This information can be useful later when you are debugging a larger program.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
