As we know that in Java every class is built from another Java class except the object class. Here the
newly created class is called a subclass. The important thing you need to remember is A subclass
inherits state and behavior from all of its ancestors.

Subclass Definition
A class that is derived from another class is called a subclass (also a derived class, extended class, or
child class). The class from which the subclass is derived is called a superclass (also a base class or a
parent class).

Define Subclass
When you are coming for an interview that time you may face technical java interview questions round
define subclass. So we are plan to share more information about the java subclass or subclass java in
detail.

What is a subclass in java?


When there is a relationship between two objects in Java, there a name given to the class that is
inheriting the methods and variables of the superclass. That’s why the subclass is a more specialized
version of the superclass. And the Subclass also called derived classes, child classes, or extended
classes.

how to create a subclass in java


To create a subclass we need to use the keyword “extends”. After that, you need to follow the “extends”
keyword with the parent class which you want to extend.

For Example:

Public class SubClassName extends ParentClassName

Advantages Of Using Subclass


There are several advantages of using Subclass in Java, like:

Reuse of code: Through inheritance, a subclass can reuse methods that already exist in a
superclass.
Specialization: In a subclass, you can add new methods to handle cases that the superclass does
not handle. You can also add new data items that the superclass does not need.
Change in action: A subclass can override a method that it inherits from a superclass by defining a
method of the same signature like that in the superclass. When you override a method, you might
make only a few minor changes or completely change what the method does.

Java Subclass Example

class superclass
{
public void show()
