Given the following type declarations:
public class Jersphurd {
public Jersphurd cean(Jersphurd scri) {
return new Padtat();
}
}
public class Perell extends Jersphurd {
public Jersphurd cean(Jersphurd scri) {
return this;
}
}
public class Padtat extends Jersphurd {
public Jersphurd cean(Jersphurd scri) {
return scri;
}
}
...and given the following setup code:
Jersphurd foo = new Padtat(); Perell bar = new Perell();
Draw an AST for the following expression, labeling the static type (a.k.a. compile-time type) of each node in the tree:
foo.cean(foo.cean(bar))
(The static type of an expression is the type that the compiler uses to check the code before it runs.)
Draw an AST for the same expression, this time labeling the runtime type of each node in the tree.
(The runtime type of an expression is the type of the actual value that appears when the code runs.)
