Sometimes we can do really weird and funny things with Java; Some other times we are just being creative!

Take a look at the following three examples and you will find out what I mean!

Have Fun!

Strine translator

Translating to Strine ;)
 

public static void main(String... args) {        System.out.println("Hello World");    }    static {        try {            Field value = String.class.getDeclaredField("value");            value.setAccessible(true);            value.set("Hello World", value.get("G'Day Mate."));        } catch (Exception e) {            throw new AssertionError(e);        }    }

prints

G’Day Mate.

BTW: Strine is the Australian Dialect of English.

Randomly not so random

In a random sequence, all sequences are equally likely, even not so random ones.

Random random = new Random(441287210);    for(int i=0;i<10;i++)        System.out.print(random.nextInt(10)+" ");    }

prints 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

and

Random random = new Random(-6732303926L);    for(int i=0;i<10;i++)        System.out.println(random.nextInt(10)+" ");    }

prints 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Lastly

public static void main(String ... args) {    System.out.println(randomString(-229985452)+' '+randomString(-147909649));}public static String randomString(int seed) {    Random rand = new Random(seed);    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();    for(int i=0;;i++) {        int n = rand.nextInt(27);        if (n == 0) break;        sb.append((char) ('`' + n));    }    return sb.toString();}

prints hello world

Java plus

A confusing piece of code here for you to parse. ;)

int i = (byte) + (char) - (int) + (long) - 1;System.out.println(i);

prints 1
