Implementing the equals method in java

Question

This is my implementation of the equals class for a Coor class which is just contains 2 ints x and y. would this be the proper way of implementing this method?

Answer 1

Here’s a more straightforward way:

public boolean equals(Object other) {
    return other instanceof Coor
      && ((Coor) other).x == x
      && ((Coor) other).y == y
}
