Talk:Java Programming/Classes, Objects and Types

Types and typecasting, outside of the basic data types, shouldn't be discussed until inheritance has been covered. Darkxxxxillusion 00:58, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

It is not discussed fully here, it is just an introduction. I think, when we introduce classes and objects we should introduce Type as well, so the reader will know that there is a concept called Type separate from the concept of Class. Ervinn 03:45, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

This provocative statement is left unexplained. It needs elaboration or a reference. Slashdottir (discuss • contribs) 15:07, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
