You might want to explain somewhere how addData knows how to do the "right thing" when displaying variables.

Any idea how to do this? I don't really want to get into Java's "Autoboxing" feature where it automatically promotes primitive types to their object representation when needed. That feels way outside the scope of this book.

Maybe right thing is “handled by” SDK / Classes provided. Knowing the capabilities of are good to know. I agree diving in deeper than that is out of scope.

We’ll talk about how to navigate the SDK to find out what is there in chapter 16.
