Is is necessary to mention "this" keyword for referring current object?

Question

Any alternative for using 'this' keyword

Answer 1

No alternative. Why would you need one?

Think of "this" as an implicit first parameter of any non-static method of your class.

You can omit the "this." prefixing for attributes of the class inside a method of the class, providing that there are no parameter or variable of the same name in that method. I would suggest to always write it regardless so that readers of your code (including you) immediately understand that you are manipulating an attribute of the class, and not just a variable.

Answer 2

you should only really use "this" if you are overloading a variable. otherwise it is basically redundant.

Answer 3

No
