Q1. Does Java support pass by reference?
Ans. 
Yes
• Java uses pass by value for all variables, including object references.

• When an object reference is passed as an argument, a copy of the reference is passed, not the actual object.

• Modifying the reference inside the method will not affect the original reference outside the method.

• However, modifications to the object's state inside the method will be visible outside the method.
