garbage collector Issue
- by Eslam
this question is like my previous one
Given:
3. interface Animal { void makeNoise(); }
4. class Horse implements Animal {
5. Long weight = 1200L;
6. public void makeNoise() { System.out.println("whinny"); }
7. }
8. public class Icelandic extends Horse {
9. public void makeNoise() { System.out.println("vinny"); }
10. public static void main(String[] args) {
11. Icelandic i1 = new Icelandic();
12. Icelandic i2 = new Icelandic();
13. Icelandic i3 = new Icelandic();
14. i3 = i1; i1 = i2; i2 = null; i3 = i1;
15. }
16. }
When line 14 is reached, how many objects are eligible for the garbage collector?
A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. 3
E. 4
F. 6
i choosed A but the right answer is E, but i don't know Why?
