title: "Object" vs "Object Variable" in Java?
body: <p>I am teaching myself Java, and one of the review exercises in my book asks for the difference between an "object" and an "object variable."</p>
  
  <p>I know what an object is (a specific instance of a class), but I can't seem to find the term "object variable" anywhere in the book (no answers section) or on the internet.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know the meaning of this term?</p>
