using an attribute of a class that has been initialised in a constructor
<p>If I set a value of an attribute of a class and use final, do i  have to initialise the attribute as a parameter of the class constructor?  For example, I have set the attribute rack of length to a value of 60</p>

<pre><code>public class Runs {
    Teams team;
    final int racklength=60;
    int xposteam;

     public Runs (Teams y) {
         team=y;           
     }
}
</code></pre>
