public class Point {
    int x, y;
    public Point(int x, int y) { this.x = x; this.y = y; }
}
Point p1 = new Point(1, 2);
Point p2 = new Point(1, 2);
System.out.println(p1.equals(p2));

What is printed?

A
$NullPointerException$
B
$Compile-time error$
C
$true$
D

check_circle

Explanation

Without overriding <code> equals </code>, the inherited Object.equals does reference comparison. p1 and p2 are distinct objects.
