Special Var 'this' Is Usually

Often, even when you are not explicitly using "this", you using it implicity.

Example:

We are explicitly using "this" to get this object's width
We are implicity using "this" to get this object's width

The methods getWidth1 and getWidth2 are functionally equivalent (they both access the width ivar).

public class Rectangle {
	private int width;
	private int height;

	public int getWidth1() {
		2return this.width;
	}

	public int getWidth2() {
		1return width;
	}

}
