Java Method Overriding


Problem Statement :


When a subclass inherits from a superclass, it also inherits its methods; however, it can also override the superclass methods (as well as declare and implement new ones). Consider the following Sports class:

class Sports{
    String getName(){
        return "Generic Sports";
    }
    void getNumberOfTeamMembers(){
        System.out.println( "Each team has n players in " + getName() );
    }
}
Next, we create a Soccer class that inherits from the Sports class. We can override the getName method and return a different, subclass-specific string:

class Soccer extends Sports{
    @Override
    String getName(){
        return "Soccer Class";
    }
}
Note: When overriding a method, you should precede it with the @Override annotation. The parameter(s) and return type of an overridden method must be exactly the same as those of the method inherited from the supertype.

Task
Complete the code in your editor by writing an overridden getNumberOfTeamMembers method that prints the same statement as the superclass' getNumberOfTeamMembers method, except that it replaces n with 11 (the number of players on a Soccer team).

Output Format

When executed, your completed code should print the following:

Generic Sports
Each team has n players in Generic Sports
Soccer Class
Each team has 11 players in Soccer Class

                            Solution in C :

class Sports{

    String getName(){
        return "Generic Sports";
    }
  
    void getNumberOfTeamMembers(){
        System.out.println( "Each team has n players in " + getName() );
    }
}

class Soccer extends Sports{
    @Override
    String getName(){
        return "Soccer Class";
    }
    
	@Override
    void getNumberOfTeamMembers(){
        System.out.println( "Each team has 11 players in " + getName() );
    }
}

public class Solution{
	
    public static void main(String []args){
        Sports c1 = new Sports();
        Soccer c2 = new Soccer();
        System.out.println(c1.getName());
        c1.getNumberOfTeamMembers();
        System.out.println(c2.getName());
        c2.getNumberOfTeamMembers();
	}
}

Compare two linked lists

You’re given the pointer to the head nodes of two linked lists. Compare the data in the nodes of the linked lists to check if they are equal. If all data attributes are equal and the lists are the same length, return 1. Otherwise, return 0. Example: list1=1->2->3->Null list2=1->2->3->4->Null The two lists have equal data attributes for the first 3 nodes. list2 is longer, though, so the lis

Merge two sorted linked lists

This challenge is part of a tutorial track by MyCodeSchool Given pointers to the heads of two sorted linked lists, merge them into a single, sorted linked list. Either head pointer may be null meaning that the corresponding list is empty. Example headA refers to 1 -> 3 -> 7 -> NULL headB refers to 1 -> 2 -> NULL The new list is 1 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 7 -> NULL.

Get Node Value

This challenge is part of a tutorial track by MyCodeSchool Given a pointer to the head of a linked list and a specific position, determine the data value at that position. Count backwards from the tail node. The tail is at postion 0, its parent is at 1 and so on.

Delete duplicate-value nodes from a sorted linked list

This challenge is part of a tutorial track by MyCodeSchool You are given the pointer to the head node of a sorted linked list, where the data in the nodes is in ascending order. Delete nodes and return a sorted list with each distinct value in the original list. The given head pointer may be null indicating that the list is empty. Example head refers to the first node in the list 1 -> 2 -

Cycle Detection

A linked list is said to contain a cycle if any node is visited more than once while traversing the list. Given a pointer to the head of a linked list, determine if it contains a cycle. If it does, return 1. Otherwise, return 0. Example head refers 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> NUL The numbers shown are the node numbers, not their data values. There is no cycle in this list so return 0. head refer

Find Merge Point of Two Lists

This challenge is part of a tutorial track by MyCodeSchool Given pointers to the head nodes of 2 linked lists that merge together at some point, find the node where the two lists merge. The merge point is where both lists point to the same node, i.e. they reference the same memory location. It is guaranteed that the two head nodes will be different, and neither will be NULL. If the lists share
