Q1: What will be the output of the program?
class Happy extends Thread 
{ 
    final StringBuffer sb1 = new StringBuffer(); 
    final StringBuffer sb2 = new StringBuffer(); 

    public static void main(String args[]) 
    { 
        final Happy h = new Happy(); 

        new Thread() 
        { 
            public void run() 
            { 
                synchronized(this) 
                { 
                    h.sb1.append('A'); 
                    h.sb2.append('B'); 
                    System.out.println(h.sb1); 
                    System.out.println(h.sb2); 
                } 
            } 
        }.start(); 

        new Thread() 
        { 
            public void run() 
            { 
                synchronized(this) 
                { 
                    h.sb1.append('D'); 
                    h.sb2.append('C'); 
                    System.out.println(h.sb2); 
                    System.out.println(h.sb1); 
                } 
            } 
        }.start(); 
    } 
}

A ABBCAD

B ABCBCAD

C CDADACB

D Output determined by the underlying platform.
