In Java, inheritance is a mechanism that allows a new class to be based on an existing class, thereby inheriting the properties and behaviors of the existing class. The existing class is referred to as the "superclass" or "parent class", while the new class is referred to as the "subclass" or "child class".
To inherit from a superclass, the "extends" keyword is used in the subclass declaration. For example:
Subclasses can access the public and protected properties and methods of their parent classes, and can add new properties and methods of their own. This allows for code reuse and modularity, as well as creating a hierarchy of related classes.
