    011 is octal for 9. Java interprets numbers starting with "0" as octal numbers (numbers with base 8). Remove the leading zero and you will get a different print out.😁

    0-9 in base 8 (octal):
    0 = 000
    1 = 001
    2 = 002
    3 = 003
    4 = 004
    5 = 005
    6 = 006
    7 = 007
    8 = 010
    9 = 011
