What is the output of this code involving static and instance initialization order? class A { static { System.out.println("static A"); } { System.out.println("instance A"); } A() { System.out.println("constructor A"); } } new A(); new A();

Static blocks run once when the class is first loaded, before any instance is created. Instance blocks run every time a new object is created, right before the constructor body.

Example
new A(); new A();
// Output:
// static A
// instance A
// constructor A
// instance A
// constructor A
