Inheritance in Java

 Inheritance in Java

Inheritance is a feature of object-oriented programming that allows you to create new classes based on existing classes. The new classes inherit properties and methods from the existing classes.

Example code:

csharp

public class Animal {

    public void speak() {

        System.out.println("Animal speaks.");

    }

}

public class Dog extends Animal {

    public void speak() {

        System.out.println("Dog barks.");

    }

}

Dog myDog = new Dog();

myDog.speak(); // prints "Dog barks."
