// Convert Integer To String
Integer.toString(123);//returns a string version of 123
// For other conversions check out the following classes:
// Double
// Long
// String
// Typecasting
// You can also cast Java objects, there's a lot of details and deals

// Interfaces
// Interface declaration syntax

// Example - Food:
public interface Edible {

// We can now create a class that implements both of these interfaces.

// In Java, you can extend only one class, but you can implement many

public class ExampleClass extends ExampleClassParent implements InterfaceOne,
InterfaceTwo {

}
// 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)
{

}
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/
