Given the following type declarations:
public interface Remer {
public Remer fros(Remer e);
}
public class Whassirm implements Remer {
public Remer fros(Remer e) {
return this;
}
}
public class Saceol implements Remer {
public Remer fros(Remer e) {
return new Whassirm();
}
}
...and given the following setup code:
Whassirm foo = new Whassirm(); Remer bar = new Saceol();
Draw an AST for the following expression, labeling the static type (a.k.a. compile-time type) of each node in the tree:
foo.fros(foo).fros(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.)
