what is an abstract class java code example
Example 1: abstract class in java
Sometimes we may come across a situation where we cannot provide
implementation to all the methods in a class. We want to leave the
implementation to a class that extends it. In such case we declare a class
as abstract.To make a class abstract we use key word abstract.
Any class that contains one or more abstract methods is declared as abstract.
If we don’t declare class as abstract which contains abstract methods we get
compile time error.
1)Abstract classes cannot be instantiated
2)An abstarct classes contains abstract method, concrete methods or both.
3)Any class which extends abstarct class must override all methods of abstract
class
4)An abstarct class can contain either 0 or more abstract method.
Example 2: how to make abstract method in java
public abstract class Account { //abstract class //perent class
protected int accountNumber;
protected Customer customerObj;
protected double balance;
//constructor
public Account(int saccountNumber, Customer scustomerObj,double sbalance){
accountNumber = saccountNumber;
customerObj = scustomerObj;
balance = sbalance;
}
// abstract Function
public abstract boolean withdraw(double amount);
}
public class SavingsAccount extends Account { // child class
private double minimumBalance;
// constructor
public SavingsAccount(int saccountNumber, Customer scustomerObj, double sbalance, double sminimumBalance) {
super(saccountNumber, scustomerObj, sbalance);
minimumBalance = sminimumBalance;
}
// Implementation of abstract function in child class
public boolean withdraw(double amount) {
if (balance() > minimumBalance && balance() - amount > minimumBalance) {
super.setBalance(balance() - amount);
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
}
Example 3: abstract class in java
public abstract class GraphicObject {
abstract void draw();
}
Example 4: abstract class java
// abstract class
abstract class Shape
{
// abstract method
abstract void sides();
}
class Triangle extends Shape
{
void sides()
{
System.out.println("Triangle shape has three sides.");
}
}
class Pentagon extends Shape
{
void sides()
{
System.out.println("Pentagon shape has five sides.");
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Triangle obj1 = new Triangle();
obj1.sides();
Pentagon obj2 = new Pentagon();
obj2.sides();
}
}
Example 5: how to create an abstract method in java
abstract class Scratch{
// cannot be static
abstract public void hello();
abstract String randNum();
}
interface Other{
//all methods in an interface are abstract
public void bye();
String randDouble();
}
Example 6: can abstract class have implementation java
abstract classes have no implementation of functions methods inside it which declared as abstract methods. classes which are inheriting it have to overriden it. and final absract class can not be overriden
