Myths

// Myth-1 : Class name and file name should be same


// File name: ClassName.java
// But it is best practice to have filename and class name same for access
class FileName {
public static void main(String[] args){
int a='k’;
System.out.println("Value of variable 'a' is: "+a);
}
}

Myths

// Multiple classes are allowed in a single Java program


// Every class is compiled to create class files.
// This example creates 3 class files: A.class, B.class and C.class
// But only C.class is executable, No error if the file is saved in any other name
class A { }
class B{}
class C{ public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Multiple class in same program is allowed");
} }
