This is a Simple example of Inheritance.
It is a Super Class that will be Extended later in Example
class A { int i, j; void showij() { System.out.println("i and j: " + i + " " + j); } }
This is a Class Extending Super Class A
class B extends A { int k; void showk() { System.out.println("k: " + k); } void sum() { System.out.println("i+j+k: " + (i+j+k)); } }
Here is a Main Class that runs this Example of Inheritance
class SimpleInheritance { public static void main(String args[]) { A superOb = new A(); B subOb = new B(); // The superclass may be used by itself. superOb.i = 10; superOb.j = 20; System.out.println("Contents of superOb: "); superOb.showij(); System.out.println(); /* The subclass has access to all public members of its superclass. */ subOb.i = 7; subOb.j = 8; subOb.k = 9; System.out.println("Contents of subOb: "); subOb.showij(); subOb.showk(); System.out.println(); System.out.println("Sum of i, j and k in subOb:"); subOb.sum(); } }
Output of Above Java Program
Contents of superOb:
i and j: 10 20
Contents of subOb:
i and j: 7 8
k: 9
Sum of i, j and k in subOb:
i+j+k: 24
