Inheritance is a process where a class can acquire the method and properties of another class.
The class which inherits the properties of other is known as subclass and the class whose properties are inherited is known as parent class.
Example:
class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Animal animal=new Animal(); //Animal referenced and animal object
animal.run();
Animal chitah=new Chitah(); //Animal referenced but chitah object
chitah.run();
Animal human=new Human(); //Animal referenced but human object
human.run();
}
}
class Animal{
public void run(){
System.out.println("Animal can run");
}
}
class Chitah extends Animal{
public void run(){
System.out.println("Chitah can run fast");
}
}
class Human extends Animal{
public void run(){
System.out.println("Human can run slower");
}
}Output:
Animal can run
Chitah can run fast
Human can run slower
