What will happen during the following code execution?

import java.util.*;
public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        List a = new ArrayList<Double>();// 4
        a.add("1.5");// 5
        List<Double> b = new ArrayList();// 6
        b.add("1.5");// 7
        System.out.println(a + " " + b);
    }
}
Explanation
Compilation error occurs in the seventh line, because only elements of Double type and derived from it can be added to the "b" collection. Elements of any type can be added to "a" collection, so parameterized type Double is stepped up to Object.
