Method overriding example in java

Description

In method overriding, the sub class and super class contains the same function with type and signature.
The function in the subclass overrides the funtion in the super class at the run time.This is a runtime polymorphism. The class must be in Is-A relation ship ie, Clerk is a emloyee , sweeper is a employee. Note: static methods cannot be overriden, because static methods are bound with class, we class static method using class name and not by the objects, so we cannot override public static void main().

/**

package oops;

/**

public class Employees {

int name;
int age;
int salary;

int getSalary(){
return 15000;
}

}
