Java Method Overriding Rules at Tap Academy

📚 Day 37 – Core Java Learning Journey at Tap Academy 🚀 Today I learned about the Rules of Method Overriding in Java, an important concept in Inheritance and Runtime Polymorphism. 🔹 Key Rules of Method Overriding: • The method must have the same name as the method in the parent class. • The parameters (method signature) must be the same. • The return type must be the same or covariant. • The method in the child class cannot have a more restrictive access modifier than the parent method. • Final methods cannot be overridden. • Static methods cannot be overridden (they are method hidden). • The overriding method can throw same or fewer exceptions than the parent method. 💡 Understanding these rules helps in writing flexible, reusable, and maintainable Java programs. Every day I’m getting closer to mastering Core Java and problem-solving. 💪 #Day37 #Java #CoreJava #MethodOverriding #Inheritance #Polymorphism #LearningJourney #TapAcademy #JavaDeveloper #WomenInTech
