 *  Compilation:  javac java
 *  Execution:  java Autoboxing
 *
 *  Headaches with autoboxing. Why does the following code behave
 *  the way it does?
 *
 *  % java Autoboxing
 *  42 and 42 are incomparable
 *  43 == 43
 *  142 and 142 are incomparable
 *
 *  Explanation:
 *    - cmp(new Integer(42), new Integer(42))
 *      first and second refer to different objects holding the value 42;
 *      thus, first != second.
 *      The expressions (first < second) and (first > second) autounbox
 *      the Integer values to 42, so neither expression is true.
 *
 *   - cmp(43, 43)
 *     the values 43 are autoboxed to the same Integer object because
 *     Java's Integer implementation caches the objects associated with
 *     the values -128 to 127 and the valueOf() method uses the cached
 *     values (and valueOf() gets called by the autoboxing).
 *
 *   - cmp(142, 142)
 *     the values 142 are autoboxed to different Integer objects.
 *
