Question #5958

I really like this question: http://www.javablackbelt.com/QuestionDetail.wwa?qidk=5958
But as you see from the comments there is unfortunately no place for it yet.
Should we add labels as an objective for
Java SE - Basic or Java SE Core - Intermed so this question will be placed there?

Re: Question #5958

I vote no.

Also, it seems like a trick question to me. Look at the QSR (only 26% got it right) Better for trivia than an exam.

Re: Question #5958

There's already a category called "Java Puzzlers". That's from Joshua Bloch's book though.

We could add another category for trivia. What do others think?

Re: Question #5958

I think that a Trivia category will be great, there are a lot of questions that could fit in that category.
