That is a sample program i wrote to test this fact. The result is dependent
on scope of the variable.
So wots this pass by reference concept that every text book around the world
states about Java.
How does the pass by reference concept work anyways?
I might have missed something here. If i did i would appreciate if anyone
told me wot is it that i did miss.
I was expecting this program to work otherwise but it does not.
