- True or False:Unlike other members of a superclass, constructors of a superclass are not inherited by its subclasses. This means that you must define a constructor for a class or use the default constructor added by the compiler.arrow_forwardThe ability to create classes that share the attributes and methods of existing classes but with more specific features is known as : Abstraction Polymorphism Typecasting Inheritancearrow_forwardSuperclass methods with this level of access cannot be called from subclasses. package public O abstract O protected privatearrow_forward
- Parent Class: Food Write a parent class called Food. A food is described by a name, the number of grams of sugar (as a whole number), and the number of grams of sodium (as a whole number). Core Class Components For the Food class, write: the complete class header the instance data variables a constructor that sets the instance data variables based on parameters getters and setters; use validity checking on the parameters where appropriate a toString method that returns a text representation of a Food object that includes all three characteristics of the food Class-Specific Method Write a method that calculates what percent of the daily recommended amount of sugar is contained in a food. The daily recommended amount might change, so the method takes in the daily allowance and then calculates the percentage. For example, let's say a food had 6 grams of sugar. If the daily allowance was 24 grams, the percent would be 0.25. For that same food, if the daily allowance was 36 grams, the…arrow_forwardvariables are variables that have the same name as variables that have been declared in a superclass and are declared in a subclass, respectively.arrow_forwardTrue/False: When instantiating an object of an abstract class, you can do it with the keyword new.arrow_forward
- What are the benefits of having a destructor for a class?arrow_forwardObject Oriented Programming in JAVA You are part of a team writing classes for the different game objects in a video game. You need to write classes for the two human objects warrior and politician. A warrior has the attributes name (of type String) and speed (of type int). Speed is a measure of how fast the warrior can run and fight. A politician has the attributes name (of type String) and diplomacy (of type int). Diplomacy is the ability to outwit an adversary without using force. From this description identify a superclass as well as two subclasses. Each of these three classes need to have a default constructor, a constructor with parameters for all the instance variables in that class (as well as any instance variables inherited from a superclass) accessor (get) and mutator (set) methods for all instance variables and a toString method. The toString method needs to return a string representation of the object. Also write a main method for each class in which that class is…arrow_forwardTrue or false: Just as a class can have multiple constructors, it can also have multiple destructors.arrow_forward

The balance isreduced by the amount received. The updated balance is returned by the method.addFees(double): doubleThis method is called to increase the balance by the amount received as a parameter. The updatedbalance is returned by the method.refund(): voidThis method is called when any monies owned to the student is paid out. This method can onlyrefund a student if the balance is negative. It displays the amount to be refunded and set thebalance to zero. (Use Math.abs(double) in your output message). If there is no refund, display anappropriate message.Test your StudentAccount class by creating objects and calling the methods addFees(), pay() andrefund(). Use toString() to display the object’s data after each method calledarrow_forward
