674 Pointsneed clarification about this part of the code. "PezDispenser dispenser= new PezDispenser();"
PezDispenser dispenser= new PezDispenser();
So I am trying to understand this part of the code a little better. The way I understand it. This is creating the variable dispenser and allowing it to be used to access the value that were set in the PezDispenser Class. Is that anywhere close to correct?

Yes, you're pretty much there.
The first bit, PezDispenser dispenser
creates a PezDispenser
-sized hole in memory. You then create an instance of PezDispenser
with new PezDispenser();
and use the equals symbol to assign the instance into the ready-made memory space.
Make sense?
Steve.
