In Java, Abstract classes can have constructors even when they are only called from their concrete subclasses.abstract class Animal {
public abstract void animalSound();
public void sleep() {
System.out.println("Zzz");
}
}We cannot create objects of an abstract class. To implement features of an abstract class, we inherit subclasses from it and create objects of the subclass. A subclass must override all abstract methods of an abstract class. However, if the subclass is declared abstract, it's not mandatory to override abstract methods.abstract class Language {
// method of abstract class
public void display() {
System.out.println("This is Java Programming");
}
}
class Main extends Language {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// create an object of Main
Main obj = new Main();
// access method of abstract class
// using object of Main class
obj.display();
}
}// create an abstract class
abstract class Language {
// fields and methods
}
...
// try to create an object Language
// throws an error
Language obj = new Language();/*Abstract class:
A class which is declared as abstract is known as an abstract class.
It can have abstract and non-abstract methods. It needs to be extended
and its method implemented. It cannot be instantiated.
*/
// Example of abstract class
abstract class A{}
// Example of Abstract class that has an abstract method
abstract class Bike{
abstract void run();
}
class Honda4 extends Bike{
void run(){System.out.println("running safely");}
public static void main(String args[]){
Bike obj = new Honda4();
obj.run();
}
}
