Java reserved name compilation [duplicate]

Question

I have seen this cod, why it works please?

public void nеw() {
    System.out.println("!?");
}

It is compile in java, I think new is a reserved word

Answer 1

It is a cyrillic е, not a latin e. Therefore, it looks like new, but is actually a different method name.

Like NPE said, I would recommend reading is it a good idea to use unicode symbols as java identifiers?
