Why does each element in this array of objects get overwritten by the last object?

Question

I have the following code:

public static void main(String[] args) {
  Player players[] = new Player[2];
  Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
  System.out.p         


        

Answer 1

With the keyword static you have made name a class variable which is NOT an instance variable. A class variable is common to all the objects. Click for some more reading.
