What is interface?
Answer:
Interface is a reference type in Java and similar to class. It is a collection of abstract methods.
A class implements an interface, thereby inheriting the abstract methods of the interface.
We can say that interface in Java is a blueprint of a class. It has static constants and abstract methods.
It is a mechanism to achieve abstraction. There can be only abstract methods in the Java interface not method body. It is used to achieve abstraction and multiple inheritance in Java.
import java.lang.*;
public interface InterfaceSample {
// Any number of final, static fields
// Any number of abstract method declarations\
}
