The document discusses class definitions, inheritance, abstract classes, and interfaces in Java. It provides examples of defining classes with variables and methods, creating objects, and using inheritance, abstract classes, and interfaces. Some key points covered include:
- Classes define data (variables) and behavior (methods) and can be instantiated with the new operator to create objects.
- Inheritance allows classes to extend existing classes, inheriting their variables and methods while also adding new ones. Derived classes can override methods from the base class.
- Abstract classes cannot be instantiated but provide common functionality to derived classes through abstract and non-abstract methods. Derived classes must implement abstract methods.
- Interfaces define common behaviors (public
