1. Create a new class named SimpleNull.
2. Create a new main method with the following code. Be certain to import the java.awt.Point class.

import java.awt.Point;
public class SimpleNull {
  public static void main(String[] args){
    Point blank = new Point(120,-99);
    System.out.println(blank);
  }
}

3. Compile and run the program.

$ javac SimpleNull.java
$ java SimpleNull
java.awt.Point[x=120,y=-99]

4. Add the following code to the end of main.

blank = null;
System.out.println(blank);
int x = blank.x;

5. Compile and run the program.

$ javac SimpleNull.java
$ java SimpleNull
java.awt.Point[x=120,y=-99]
null
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
	at SimpleNull.main(SimpleNull.java:8)

The complete class should appear as follows.

import java.awt.Point;
public class SimpleNull {
  public static void main(String[] args){
    Point blank = new Point(120,-99);
    System.out.println(blank);
    blank = null;
    System.out.println(blank);
    int x = blank.x;
  }
}
