Welcome to JavaRanch.

The way JavaRanch works is not just to give out answers, but to help people understand what's going on. So: What is the output, and why do you think that is? Where is it different from what you thought it would be? Can you think why?

We also have a collection of tips on how to get the most out of the Saloon: HowToAskQuestionsOnJavaRanch, in particular UseAMeaningfulSubjectLine.
