Method Overriding in Java

gistfile1.txt

1-If subclass (child class) has the same method as declared in the parent class, it is known as method overriding in Java.

2-In other words, If a subclass provides the specific implementation of the method that has been declared by one of its parent class,
it is known as method overriding.


//Java Program to illustrate the use of Java Method Overriding  
//Creating a parent class.  
class Vehicle{  
  //defining a method  
  void run(){System.out.println("Vehicle is running");}  
}  
//Creating a child class  
class Bike2 extends Vehicle{  
  //defining the same method as in the parent class  
  void run(){System.out.println("Bike is running safely");}  
  
  public static void main(String args[]){  
  Bike2 obj = new Bike2();//creating object  
  obj.run();//calling method  
  }  
}
