// When the constructor is called to create a

class Tag {
Tag(int marker) {
System.out.println("Tag(" + marker + ")");
}
}
class Card {
Tag t1 = new Tag(1); // Before constructor

// Indicate we're in the constructor:
System.out.println("Card()");
t3 = new Tag(33); // Reinitialize t3
}
Tag t2 = new Tag(2); // After constructor
void f() {
System.out.println("f()");
}
Tag t3 = new Tag(3); // At end
}
