I have code that looks like this:
public class Polynomial {
List<Term> term = new LinkedList<Term>();
and it seems that whenever I do something like term.add(anotherTerm)
, with anotherTerm being... another Term object, it seems anotherTerm is referencing the same thing as what I've just inserted into term so that whenever I try to change anotherTerm, term.get(2) (let's say) get's changed too.
How can I prevent this from happening?
