Java
Straight from XKCD
It's a never-ending game of catch between a parent and child!
The target of CHILD
is set to PARENT
and the target of PARENT
is the CHILD
. When the PARENT
calls AIM
, it throws the instance of the BALL
class and it is caught by the catch statement. The catch statement then calls PARENT.TARGET.AIM
where the target is the CHILD
. The CHILD
instance does the same and "throws the ball back" to the parent.
