One confused Java online quiz before interview

Dear all,
Today I took an online quiz from a Java platform product company I were confused by one of the questions.
What is the output of the following code fragment:

public MyClass {
int i;
public boolean equals(G g) {
return (this.i == g.i);
}
}
G g1 = new G(1);
G g2 = new G(1);
System.out.println(g1 == g2 + ", " + g1.equals(g2));

A false, false
B false, true
C true, false
D true, true
I thought there is no correct answer for the question. Because you don't know what G is and what MyClass is.
Am i right?
What do you think?
Thanx in advance.

I am moving this thread to the Java beginner forum.

yes liu, i too belive that there is no right answer in the given option.
because it is needed that class G should be there, which is not.

You can at least say that the first part will be false. == checks to see if the two variables refer to the same memory location. In this case, since you just created two new objects, they dont.
I agree with Prateek on the second part that because you have no idea what class G looks like you have no idea what is put into the i variable. I'm wondering if this is a typo, you show the equals method in class MyClass as comparing a MyClass object to a G object. Even if it is class G not MyClass it still doesnt show a constructor to show what gets put into i.

Hi,
The answer is false, false.
g1 == g2 yields false because g1 and g2 are references to different objects G1 and G2 respectively.
g1.equals(g2) yields false :
The default behavior of the equals(..) method in class Object checks whether the two references point to the same object i.e. same memory location (that is same as g1 == g2).
class MyClass is not instantiated at all. Thus, you can safely ignore MyClass.
Hope this helps.
Ashwin.

So how do you know that the G class doesn't override the equals() method to do something completely different?
Lousy question.

Thank all of you, prateek narang, Dave Vick, Ashwin Desai,Cindy Glass.
I still think it is an incorrect question. There is no correct answer for it because of what Cindy said.
Thanx again.

Isn't there yet another problem with the code?
The equals "override" shown is actually an overload; since Object.equals() requires an Object parameter, the code shown is not really an override, and although legal, can cause other problems and should not usually be used. As far as I can tell, this will not affect the answer, which is also ambiguous since you cannot tell if G overrides the equals( ) method.
