Introduction to Java Programming Chapter 7 Intro to Java Progrmming Chapter 11 Inheritance and Polymorphism 11.1 Introduction Object-oriented programming allows you to derive new classes from existing classes. This is called inheritance. Inheritance is an important and powerful concept in Java. In fact, every classes we defined in Java is inherited from an existing class, either explicitly or implicitly. The classes we created in the preceding chapters were all extended implicitly from the java.lang.Object class. This chapter introduces the concept of inheritance. Specifically, it discusses superclasses and subclasses. The use of the keyword super, and the Object class, explores polymorphism and dynamic binding, genetic programming, and casting objects, and introduces the modifiers protected and final. public class GeometricObject { private String color = “white”; private boolean filled; private java.util.Date dateCreated; public GeometricObject() { dateCreated = new java.util.Date(); } public String getColor() { return color; } public void setColor(String color) { this.color = color; } … public String toString() { return “created on” + dateCreated + “\ncolor: ” + color + “ and filled: “ + filled; } } public class Circle extends GeometricObject { private double radius; public Circle() { } public Circle(double radius) { setRadius(radius); } public double getRadius() { return radius; } public void setRadius(double radius) { this.radius = radius; } public double getArea() { return Math.PI * radius * radius; } public double getPerimeter() { return 2 * Math.PI * radius; } public double getDiameter() { return 2 * radius; } } public class Rectangle extends GeometricObject { private double width; private double height; public Rectangle() { } public Rectangle(double width, double height) { setWidth(width); setHeight(height); } public double getWidth() { return width; } public void setWidth(double width) { this.width = width
