What is the order in which constructors are called with inheritance?
This small example shows you. We create an instance of Main, and
before it calls the constructor of Main, it will initialize all its
fields sequentially. When a subclass is instantiated (in all cases,
as every object extends from Object), it will always call the
constructor of the superclass. In the case of new B():
constructor Object --> Constructor A --> Constructor B.
