Method Override sample in Java
By: Ganesh Iyer Printer Friendly Format
A method is said to be overridden when one is in parent class and another is in child class with the same name, same return type, same parameter.
class
Animal
{
int height=10;
int weight=20;
void talk()
{
System.out.println(\"Animal talking\");
}
void food()
{
System.out.println(\"Animal Eating\");
}
}
class Cat extends Animal
{
void talk()
{
System.out.println(\"meo...
meo\");
}
void food()
{
System.out.println(\"Drink MILK\");
}
}
class functionOverride
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Animal a = new Animal();
Cat c = new Cat();
/* c.height=20 */;
c.talk();
c.food();
System.out.println(\"Height \"+c.height);
}
}
