Study Notes

Copy Constructor

A copy constructor creates a new object as a copy of an existing object.
Syntax example: Student(Student s) { ... }
Inside the constructor, member variables are assigned values from the copied object.

Constructor Overloading

Allows multiple constructors in a single class without return types.
Example:
- Default constructor: Balance() { ... }
- Parameterized constructor: Balance(double b) { ... }

Multilevel Inheritance

Involves multiple classes in a hierarchy where a class derives from another derived class.
Example demonstrates classes A, B, and C with methods to display hierarchy:
- class C extends B { ... }
- Calling methods from parent classes.

Method Overriding

Allows a subclass to provide a specific implementation of a method that is already defined in its superclass.
Example shows method display() in classes A and B where B overrides A's implementation.

Method Overloading vs. Method Overriding

Method Overloading:
- Methods share the same name but differ in parameter lists.
- Can have different return types.
- Works within the same class, demonstrating compile-time polymorphism.
Method Overriding:
- Must match the method signature of the superclass.
- Demonstrates run-time polymorphism with dynamic binding.

Interfaces

Interfaces define contracts that classes must adhere to, implementing specified methods.
An abstract class must be declared if it doesn’t implement all interface methods.

Inheritance of Interfaces

An interface can extend another interface, allowing a class to implement multiple interfaces.
Example illustrates interface inheritance between interfaces A and B.

Multiple Inheritance Using Interfaces

A class can implement multiple interfaces, allowing for multiple inheritance.
Each interface can have distinct method definitions, which the implementing class must provide.

Classes vs. Interfaces

Class:
- Can be instantiated, contains constructors.
- Methods can be concrete or abstract.
Interface:
- Cannot be instantiated, does not have constructors.
- All methods are abstract by default; variables are static final.
