Hi everybody,
I want to know whether the following method
boolean equals (Object obj)
throws the ClassCastException if the argument object is not of class String or does the language itself converts non-string object into its string representation internally?
Thanks in advance for your inputs.

String.equals(Object) returns false if Objects is not a String
