//    // functions are called as methods in Java.
// }

// Interfaces
// Interface declaration syntax
// <access-level> interface <interface-name> extends <super-interfaces> {
//     // Constants
//     // Method declarations
// }

// Example - Food:
public interface Edible {
	public void eat(); // Any class that implements this interface, must
                       // implement this method.
}

public interface Digestible {
	public void digest();
}


// We can now create a class that implements both of these interfaces.
public class Fruit implements Edible, Digestible {
    @Override
	public void eat() {
		// ...
	}

    @Override
	public void digest() {
		// ...
	}
}

// In Java, you can extend only one class, but you can implement many
// interfaces. For example:
public class ExampleClass extends ExampleClassParent implements InterfaceOne,
    InterfaceTwo {
    @Override
	public void InterfaceOneMethod() {
	}

    @Override
	public void InterfaceTwoMethod() {
	}
}


// Abstract Classes
// Abstract Class declaration syntax
// <access-level> abstract <abstract-class-name> extends <super-abstract-classes> {
//     // Constants and variables
//     // Method declarations
// }

// Methods can't have bodies in an interface, unless the method is
// static. Also variables are NOT final by default, unlike an interface.
// Also abstract classes CAN have the "main" method.
// Abstract classes solve these problems.

public abstract class Animal
{
	public abstract void makeSound();

	// Method can have a body
	public void eat()
	{
		System.out.println("I am an animal and I am Eating.");
		// Note: We can access private variable here.
		age = 30;
	}

	// No need to initialize, however in an interface
	// a variable is implicitly final and hence has
	// to be initialized.
	private int age;

	public void printAge()
	{
		System.out.println(age);
	}

	// Abstract classes can have main function.
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		System.out.println("I am abstract");
	}
}

class Dog extends Animal
{
	// Note still have to override the abstract methods in the
	// abstract class.
	@Override
	public void makeSound()
	{
		System.out.println("Bark");
		// age = 30;	==> ERROR!	age is private to Animal
	}

	// NOTE: You will get an error if you used the
	// @Override annotation here, since java doesn't allow
	// overriding of static methods.
	// What is happening here is called METHOD HIDING.
	// Check out this awesome SO post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16313649/
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		Dog pluto = new Dog();
		pluto.makeSound();
		pluto.eat();
		pluto.printAge();
	}
}
