Java Method Overriding

Java Method Overriding:

If the subclass (child class) has the same method as declared in the superclass (parent class), it is known as method overriding in Java. In other words, if a subclass provides the specific implementation of the method provided by one of its parent classes, it is known as method overriding.

Note:-

• Method overriding occurs in two classes that have an inheritance relationship.
• In case of method overriding, the parameter must be the same.
• It is an example of run-time polymorphism.
• The return type must be the same or covariant in method overriding.

class Animal 
{
	public void show() {
		
		System.out.println("The animal speaks");
	}

}

class Cat extends Animal 
{
	@Override
 public void show() {
		
		super.show();
		
		System.out.println("The Cat Mew...Mew...");
	}
		
}

	
public class Method_overriding {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
	//	Animal animal = new Animal();
		
		Cat cat = new Cat();
		cat.show();

	}
