Why not using a record; is easier:

record Student(String name) {}

public class Main1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        var s1 = new Student("Momo");
        System.out.println(s1.fname());
    }
}

👋 Kindness is contagious

DEV is better (more customized, reading settings like dark mode etc) when you're signed in!

Okay
