What is a constructor? State three of its characteristics.
Original Khojo Papers practice question — not from a past board paper.
Answer
A constructor is a special member method that is invoked automatically when an object is created, and it initialises the object. It has the same name as the class, it has no return type, not even void, and it cannot be called explicitly like an ordinary method.
No citable source has been recorded for this record. Treat it as practice material, not as fact.
Explanation
If no constructor is written, the compiler supplies a default one.
