Is this valid Java code? My teacher claims it is, but I'm really not so sure

Question

Granted he didn't show us actual code here, just mentioned it, I found it extremely bizarre.

For example, according to what he said this is valid Java:

public class Person
{
    String Name;
    int Age;

    {
        //These two braces just chilling together - VALID? :O
    }
}

Answer 1

Yes - it's the instance initializer. You can also use it along with anonymous subclasses for Double-Brace Initialization.
