The default implementation of the equal method compares only whether two object variables refer to the same object
See the following equals method defined in class BankAccount.
class BankAccount(){
String accNumber; int accType;
public boolean equals (Object obj){ if(obj instanceOf BankAccount){ BankAccount b = (BankAccount) obje; return(acctumber.equals(b.accNumber) && accType == b.accType); } return false; } } Does this method violates the contract for the equals method?
Why is the next equals method in conflict with the contract for the equals method
public boolean equals (Object anObject){ return true; }
Because it returns true, even for null values passed to this method
Because it doesn't compare the values of the instance variables of the objects
Both answers are true
