title: Is the 'this' pointer only hidden in C++ or in java too?
body: <p>I've been doing a large amount of studying lately, and I was working on C++, and the topic of the hidden pointer (<code>this</code>).</p>
  
  <p>It is one of the most complex topics I have seen so far. I remember <code>this</code> from Java, and I don't remember anything about it being hidden in Java. I do remember that you have to explicitly use it in Java, but apparently it's automatic in C++. Can anyone confirm this?</p>
