Can constructors be called as normal methods?

Answer 1

@Morgan No, you can't. You should use setters if you want to do that.

Answer 2

Please define 'normal'...
What do you mean? You can call a constructor without storing the returned object if this is what you want to know.

Answer 3

Shouldn't it be this.someRandomVariableToBeIncremented += number; ?

Answer 4

constructors are meant to initialise an object, but can it be called multiple times instead of recreating another method that does the exact same thing

Answer 5

Say, the constructor initialises the object with incrementing a variable passed on to the parenthesis

//main
Foo bar = new Foo(8);

//constructor for class Foo
Foo(int number){
this.someRandomVariableToBeIncremented += number;
}

after initialising this object, i want to add another 5 to the "someRandomVariableToBeIncremented" at that instance

so can i call the constructor again using bar.Foo()?

weird question, kinda dumb but i dont really get this part

Answer 6
