What will be displayed?

class A {
    int x = 1;

    public void printX() {
        System.out.println(getX());
    }

    public int getX() {
        return x;
    }
}

class B extends A {
    int x = 2;

    public int getX() {
        return x + 1;
    }
}

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        A classA = new B();
        classA.printX();
    }
}
Explanation
Method printX() displays the value returned by the method getX(). This brings overlapped method of class B, which returns x+1 and the field value x is also taken from the class B.
