Given the following type declarations:
public class Iami {
public Iami phiri(Iami e) {
return e;
}
}
public class Cuscac extends Iami {
public Iami phiri(Iami e) {
return new Cuscac();
}
}
public class Knurcre extends Iami {
public Iami phiri(Iami e) {
return this;
}
}
...and given the following setup code:
Knurcre foo = new Knurcre(); Iami bar = new Cuscac();
Draw an AST for the following expression, labeling the static type (a.k.a. compile-time type) of each node in the tree:
foo.phiri(bar).phiri(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.)
