Couple of days back I wrote an article on basic Java Fundamental on What is an Interface in Java and How it’s used? This tutorial is also related to
To explain with an abstract class example in Java: Imagine an abstract class named “Vehicle”. This class might have an abstract method called “move”. While the concept of moving is common to all vehicles, the way a car moves differs from how a boat or an airplane does. Thus, subclas...
An abstract method is a method prototype (i.e. return type, method name, list of parameters and optionally throws clause) without any implementation. Its implementation is provided by the subclass(es) of the class in which it is declared. To create an abstract method, simply specify the modi...
What is use of abstract class in Java? Abstract class: is a restricted classthat cannot be used to create objects(to access it, it must be inherited from another class). Abstract method: can only be used in an abstract class, and it does not have a body. The body is provided by the...
What is an abstract method? In object-oriented programming, methods are programmed procedures included as part of a class. Methods can be included in any object in a class, and any class can have more than one method. In an object, methods only have access to the data known to that obje...
When to use abstract methods in Java? Why you would want to declare a method as abstract is best illustrated by an example. Take a look at the code below: /*the Figure class must be declared as abstract because it contains an abstract method*/publicabstractclassFigure ...

Understanding the differences between an abstract class and an interface is essential. An interface only has method declarations or abstract methods and constant data members, while an abstract class may have abstract methods, member variables and concrete methods. Because Java only supports single inher...
Why and when to use an Interfaces? An interface is a reference type in Java. It is similar to class. It is acollectionof abstract methods. It is used to achieve totalabstraction. I believe this is the first question you might expect inJava Interview. Very basic questions but widely used...
This section describes what is an abstract method - a method which only has only the calling signature declared with no implementation code. An abstract method must be fully implemented in subclasses. This means that any class with an abstract method must be declared as an abstract class. ...
