Java HashSet Collection problem

Here's how the HashSet works. It maintains an array of buckets. When an object is inserted, it finds the appropriate bucket corresponding to the objects HashCode. Then it calls the equals method to compare the equality of objects in the bucket.If an equals returns true with any object of the bucket then the new object is not inserted.

Now Here's the situation. There's a class A. Its equals and hashcode method is overridden. equals always returns false and hashcode always returns a single value say 5.

Here's my code.

import java.util.*; public class Prac {

@Override
public int hashCode() {
    return 10;
}



@Override
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
    return false;
}

public static void main(String args[]) {
   HashSet<Prac> hs=new HashSet<Prac>();
   Prac p=new Prac();
   hs.add(p);
   p=new Prac();
   hs.add(p);
   p=new Prac();
   hs.add(p);
   System.out.println(hs.size());
}

}

The output is 3. If I do re-initialize p using p= new Prac() after the first insertion then only once the insertion will take place and the output is 1.

The point is, the hashcode is same and the equals always returns false, so if hs.add(p) is called again without re-initializing variable p, then it should insert the object again. Can anyone tell me the concept behind this??
