Answer 1

you have 2 main methods in different classes. the first one found will be called to start ur program aka the one with 2 Counter objects

Answer 2

but bro if suppose to to write the code using eclipse in such a way that by making 2 seperate files in each with one main method. And after that if i run the whole package then what will be the Output. Same single answer(2) or two different answers(2 & 3) .

Answer 3

you are not supposed to write multiple main's

Answer 4

Only one main will run. Given your output, the yClass one was picked.
