How many objects are created when you create an object of a plain class?

This is shared out of a random thought. Let’s say we’ve got two classes:

class A{}
class B extends A{
 static B obj = new B();
}

Do not read further until you have the answer to the question.

JVM - the runtime data areas (Part 2/2)

Part 2 is continuation of Part 1. If you have not read Part 1 or want to review, please head here.

I have created some independent images which have a small program on each and the memory allocation being shown. As I informed in Part 1, our main concern will be three runtime areas, viz., Method Area, Heap Area, and Java Stacks Area, so I have only shown them in the following explanations.

JVM - the runtime data areas (Part 1/2)

Hi, This is Part 1 of a 2 part series that unfolds the abstract view of runtime memory allocation. You will understand how the variables get memory, how methods are created, how the control might flow. I have explained it in layman's language, for insight I will add links to a few external resources. Link to part 2 is provided at the bottom of this article.
