Hmm :-)
I don't get it because construction and initialization in Java is
different than in C++. Consider, default initializator of Object types
is null. In C++ there is no such term as default initializator.

I'm not sure what pointer are you talking about?
I'm talking about Triangle class that includes 3 members of type of
Coordinate. Where are those pointers?
