Single, multi-level, hierarchical, and hybrid inheritance
Explain the difference between single and multi-level inheritance in Java.
Explain the difference between single and multi-level inheritance in Java.
Single inheritance involves one child class inheriting from one parent class, while multi-level inheritance allows multiple levels of inheritance.

Study Notes
- Object-oriented programming concepts have simplified programming methods, with inheritance being a crucial method in Java.
- Inheritance in Java involves a parent class passing down its methods and properties to a child class, reducing code redundancy and improving functionality.
- Java supports four types of inheritance: single, multi-level, hierarchical, and hybrid inheritance.
- Single inheritance involves one child class inheriting from one parent class, while multi-level inheritance allows multiple levels of inheritance.
- Hierarchical inheritance involves multiple child classes inheriting from one parent class, creating a hierarchy of classes.
- Hybrid inheritance is a combination of different types of inheritance, such as multi-level and hierarchical inheritance.
- Java does not support multiple inheritance due to the diamond problem but can be achieved through interfaces.
- Inheritance relationships include "is a" where a child class inherits or implements a parent class, and "has a" where a class has instance variables referencing objects of another class.
- Method overloading involves having multiple methods with the same name but different parameters in a class, divided into three types based on parameter variations.
- Method overriding is the process where both child and parent classes have the same method, following rules like matching argument lists and less restrictive access modifiers in the child class.
- The super keyword in method overriding allows calling methods defined in the parent class from the child class.
- Practical examples and code demonstrations were provided throughout the text to explain concepts clearly.
