🧬 Inheritance 🎭 Polymorphism 🧠 Algorithms 🎒 Knapsack 🌳 Huffman 🚀 Integrated Project

🧬 CLASS 4 – PART A: Inheritance & Polymorphism

🏗️ A.1 What is Inheritance? ▼

Inheritance lets a new class reuse the fields and methods of an existing class. The existing class is the parent (superclass / base class); the new class is the child (subclass / derived class).

💡

Inheritance models an "is-a" relationship: a Student is a Person; a Dog is an Animal. Common data (like name) is written once in the parent instead of being copied into every child class. This reduces duplication and makes programs easier to extend.

Parent and Child Classes

// Parent class
class Person {
    String name;
    void displayName() {
        System.out.println(name);
    }
}

// Child class inherits from Person
class Student extends Person {
    int marks;
}

Class Diagram

Person ← parent / superclass (name, displayName()) ↑ | extends ("Student IS-A Person") | Student ← child / subclass (marks) + everything from Person

Using Inherited Members

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Student s = new Student();
        s.name = "Kamal";    // inherited field
        s.marks = 80;        // own field
        s.displayName();     // inherited method
        System.out.println(s.marks);
    }
}

✅

Output: Kamal
80

📚 A.2 Terminology & Key Rules ▼

Term	Meaning	Example
Parent / Superclass	The class being inherited from	Person
Child / Subclass	The class that inherits	Student
extends	Keyword that creates the inheritance link	`class Student extends Person`
Inherited members	Fields/methods received from parent	name, displayName()
Overriding	Child provides own version of inherited method	Dog.sound()
super	Reference to parent part of object	`super(name)`
Is-a	Relationship justifying inheritance	Student is a Person

⚠️

Important Rules:

A class can extend only one parent class (single inheritance).
Inheritance can be multi-level: Person → Student → GraduateStudent.
Every class secretly extends the built-in Object class.
Don't use inheritance just to reuse code. Use it only when the is-a test is true.

📦 A.3 Inherited Members & What a Child Can Add ▼

A child object contains the parent's fields plus its own. The child may also add new methods.

class Person {
    String name;
    int age;
    void displayName() { System.out.println(name); }
}

class Student extends Person {
    int marks;            // new field
    boolean isPass() {    // new method
        return marks >= 40;
    }
}
// Student object has: name, age, marks
// Methods: displayName(), isPass()

⬆️ A.4 The super Keyword ▼

super refers to the parent class part of the current object. Two main uses:

Use 1: Call parent constructor

super(...) calls the parent constructor. Must be the first statement in the child constructor.

Use 2: Call parent method

super.method() calls the parent's version of a method that the child has overridden.

Example – Calling Parent Constructor

class Person {
    String name;
    Person(String name) {
        this.name = name;
        System.out.println("Person constructor");
    }
}

class Student extends Person {
    int marks;
    Student(String name, int marks) {
        super(name);   // MUST be first
        this.marks = marks;
        System.out.println("Student constructor");
    }
}

// new Student("Kamal", 80);
// Output:
// Person constructor
// Student constructor

🔑

Explanation: Creating a Student first builds the Person part (parent constructor runs first), then the Student part. super(name) passes the value up so the parent can initialize name.

Example – Calling Overridden Parent Method

class Student extends Person {
    int marks = 80;
    
    @Override
    void display() {
        super.display();                      // run Person's version first
        System.out.println("Marks: " + marks); // then add extra
    }
}

🏗️ A.5 Constructor Inheritance Rules ▼

🚨

Key Rule: Constructors are NOT inherited. A subclass must have its own constructors. However, every subclass constructor must call a parent constructor.

super(...) must be the first statement in the child constructor.
If you don't write it, the compiler inserts super(); automatically.
If the parent has only a parameterised constructor, the child must call super(arguments) explicitly — otherwise a compile error occurs.
Object creation order: parent constructor body runs before child constructor body.

class Person {
    String name;
    Person(String name) { // only parameterised
        this.name = name;
    }
}

class Student extends Person {
    int marks;
    Student(int marks) {     // ❌ ERROR: compiler tried super() but it doesn't exist
        this.marks = marks;
    }
}

// ✅ FIX:
class Student2 extends Person {
    int marks;
    Student2(String name, int marks) {
        super(name);   // explicit call, first line
        this.marks = marks;
    }
}

🔒 A.6 Member Accessibility: private, protected, public ▼

Access modifiers control who can see and use a class member. They support encapsulation (hiding data inside the class and exposing only what is necessary).

Modifier	Same Class	Same Package	Subclass	Everywhere
`private`	✅	❌	❌	❌
(default)	✅	✅	❌	❌
`protected`	✅	✅	✅	❌
`public`	✅	✅	✅	✅

✅

Best Practice: Make fields private and provide public getters/setters. This is the core of encapsulation.

🔄 A.7 Method Overriding vs Overloading ▼

Overriding means a subclass provides its own implementation of an inherited method, with the same name, parameters, and compatible return type. Use @Override to let the compiler check.

Aspect	Overloading	Overriding
Location	Same class	Subclass
Signature	Same name, different parameters	Same name AND parameters
Resolution	Compile time	Run time
Example	`add(int,int)` and `add(double,double)`	`Dog.sound()` replaces `Animal.sound()`

⚠️

Rules: Overriding method cannot have weaker access. final, static, and private methods cannot be overridden.

🎭 A.8 Polymorphism – "Many Forms" ▼

Polymorphism means the same method call can produce different behaviour depending on the actual object. It combines inheritance + method overriding + a parent-type reference.

Classic Example

class Animal { void sound() { System.out.println("Animal sound"); } }
class Dog extends Animal { @Override void sound() { System.out.println("Bark"); } }
class Cat extends Animal { @Override void sound() { System.out.println("Meow"); } }

// Using polymorphism
Animal a;
a = new Dog();
a.sound();   // Bark

a = new Cat();
a.sound();   // Meow

Polymorphism with an Array

Animal[] zoo = { new Dog(), new Cat(), new Animal(), new Dog() };
for (Animal x : zoo) {
    x.sound();   // one line, different behaviour per object
}
// Output: Bark, Meow, Animal sound, Bark

⚡ A.9 Runtime Polymorphism (Dynamic Method Dispatch) ▼

The JVM decides at run time (not compile time) which overridden method to execute — based on the actual object type, not the reference type.

Reference Object in memory Method that RUNS ---------------------------------------------- Animal a; a = new Dog(); a → [ Dog object ] → Dog.sound() "Bark" a = new Cat(); a → [ Cat object ] → Cat.sound() "Meow"

🎯

Key Rules:

Reference type decides which methods you can call (compile-time check).
Object type decides which overridden method runs (run-time decision).
To call a child-only method through a parent reference, use instanceof then cast.

Safe Downcasting with instanceof

Animal a = new Dog();
if (a instanceof Dog) {
    Dog d = (Dog) a;   // downcast
    d.fetch();        // OK: fetch() is Dog-only
}

🧠 CLASS 4 – PART B: Standard Algorithms

🎯 Algorithm Strategies Overview ▼

An algorithm is a finite, step-by-step method for solving a problem. Four strategies appear repeatedly in computer science:

Strategy	Idea	Seen In
Brute Force	Try every possibility	String matching
Greedy	Take the best-looking choice now, never reconsider	Coins, Huffman, Activity Selection, SJF
Dynamic Programming	Solve sub-problems once, reuse answers	0/1 Knapsack
Divide & Conquer	Split, solve parts, combine	Binary Search, Fast Power

🔍 B.1 String Matching ▼

Finding whether a pattern occurs inside a text, and where. This powers search boxes, find-and-replace, and spell checkers.

Built-in String Methods

Method	Purpose
`text.equals(other)`	Are two strings identical?
`text.equalsIgnoreCase()`	Same, ignoring case
`text.contains(p)`	Does text contain p anywhere?
`text.indexOf(p)`	Position of first match, or -1
`startsWith / endsWith`	Match at start/end
`charAt(i)`	Character at index i

⚠️

Warning: Compare Strings with equals(), never == (which compares memory references, not content).

Brute Force Implementation

static int find(String text, String pattern) {
    for (int i = 0; i <= text.length() - pattern.length(); i++) {
        int j = 0;
        while (j < pattern.length() &&
               text.charAt(i + j) == pattern.charAt(j)) {
            j++;
        }
        if (j == pattern.length()) return i;
    }
    return -1;
}

🪙 B.2 Counting Coins (Greedy Approach) ▼

Problem: Make a given amount using the fewest coins.
Greedy: Always take the largest coin that still fits, subtract it, repeat.

Example: Amount = 37, Coins = 25, 10, 5, 1

37 - 25 = 12 (take 25) 12 - 10 = 2 (take 10) 2 - 1 = 1 (take 1) 1 - 1 = 0 (take 1) Result: 4 coins (25 + 10 + 1 + 1)

static void countCoins(int amount, int[] coins) {
    int totalCoins = 0;
    for (int coin : coins) {
        int howMany = amount / coin;
        if (howMany > 0) {
            System.out.println(howMany + " x " + coin);
            totalCoins += howMany;
            amount = amount % coin;
        }
    }
    System.out.println("Total coins = " + totalCoins);
}

⚠️

Key Point: Greedy is optimal only for some coin systems (25, 10, 5, 1). For coins {4, 3, 1} and amount 6, greedy gives 3 coins (4+1+1) but the optimal answer is 2 coins (3+3). When greedy fails, use Dynamic Programming.

🎒 B.3 Knapsack Problem (0/1 vs Fractional) ▼

Problem: A thief has a bag with limited capacity. Each item has weight and value. Goal: maximize total value without exceeding capacity.

Aspect	0/1 Knapsack	Fractional Knapsack
Rule	Take item whole or not at all	May take a fraction of an item
Method	Dynamic Programming	Greedy by value/weight ratio
Real-life	Laptops, boxes, tasks	Grain, liquids, sand

Fractional Knapsack (Greedy)

static double fractional(int[] wt, int[] val, int capacity) {
    // Sort by value/weight ratio (highest first)
    // Take items fully until bag is full
    // Take fraction of last item that fits
    double total = 0;
    int remaining = capacity;
    for (int i : sortedIndexes) {
        if (wt[i] <= remaining) {
            total += val[i];
            remaining -= wt[i];
        } else {
            total += val[i] * (double) remaining / wt[i];
            break;
        }
    }
    return total;
}

💡

Why Greedy Fails for 0/1: Choosing by ratio may leave unused capacity. 0/1 Knapsack requires Dynamic Programming: dp[i][w] = best value using first i items with capacity w.

🌳 B.4 Huffman Coding (Lossless Compression) ▼

A lossless data compression method that gives short bit codes to frequent characters and long codes to rare ones. No code is the beginning of another code (prefix code).

Frequency → Build tree (merge two lowest) → Assign 0/1 (left=0, right=1) → Compressed bits

Example: "ABRACADABRA"

Char	Frequency	Code	Bits used
A	5	0	5 × 1 = 5
B	2	10	2 × 2 = 4
R	2	110	2 × 3 = 6
C	1	1110	1 × 4 = 4
D	1	1111	1 × 4 = 4
Total	11	—	23 bits

✅

Result: Normal ASCII needs 11 × 8 = 88 bits. Huffman needs only 23 bits — over 70% savings!

📅 B.5 Activity Selection (Greedy) ▼

Given activities with start/finish times, choose the maximum number of non-overlapping activities.

🎯

Greedy Rule: Sort by earliest finish time, pick the first, then repeatedly pick the next activity whose start time is at or after the finish of the last chosen one.

Example

Activity	Start	Finish
A	1	3
B	2	5
C	4	7
D	6	8

// Already sorted by finish time
System.out.println("Selected: " + name[0]);  // A
int last = 0;
for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
    if (start[i] >= finish[last]) {
        System.out.println("Selected: " + name[i]);  // C
        last = i;
    }
}
// Output: Selected: A, Selected: C

⏰ B.6 Scheduling Strategies ▼

Scheduling decides which task runs when, given limited resources (CPUs, rooms, people).

Strategy	Rule	Notes
FCFS	Run in arrival order	Simple & fair; one long task delays everything
SJF	Shortest task first	Gives lowest average waiting time
Priority	Highest priority first	Low priority may starve (aging fixes this)
Round Robin	Time slice per task in turn	Used by time-sharing OS
EDF	Nearest deadline first	Used in real-time systems

Example: FCFS vs SJF

Strategy	Order	Waiting times	Average
FCFS	P1, P2, P3	0, 6, 14	6.67
SJF	P3, P1, P2	0, 3, 9	4.00

🚀 FINAL INTEGRATED PROJECT: Student Management System

🎓 Complete Student Management System ▼

This project combines inheritance, polymorphism, arrays, searching, sorting, methods, and loops into one real-world application.

System Architecture

Person (name, age, displayInfo()) ↑ | extends | Student (studentId, marks[], calculateTotal(), findGrade()) | Teacher (subject, overrides displayInfo())

Person.java (Parent Class)

public class Person {
    private String name;
    private int age;

    public Person(String name, int age) {
        this.name = name;
        this.age = age;
    }

    public String getName() { return name; }
    public int getAge() { return age; }

    public void displayInfo() {
        System.out.println("Name: " + name + ", Age: " + age);
    }
}

Student.java (Child Class)

public class Student extends Person {
    private int studentId;
    private int[] marks;

    public Student(int id, String name, int age, int[] marks) {
        super(name, age);
        this.studentId = id;
        this.marks = marks;
    }

    public int calculateTotal() {
        int total = 0;
        for (int m : marks) total += m;
        return total;
    }

    public double calculateAverage() {
        return (double) calculateTotal() / marks.length;
    }

    public String findGrade() {
        double avg = calculateAverage();
        if (avg >= 75) return "A";
        else if (avg >= 65) return "B";
        else if (avg >= 55) return "C";
        else if (avg >= 40) return "D";
        else return "F";
    }

    @Override
    public void displayInfo() {
        super.displayInfo();
        System.out.println("  Student ID: " + studentId +
                           ", Grade: " + findGrade());
    }
}

    new Student(201, "Ruwan", 18, new int[]{60,70,80}),
    new Teacher("Mr. Silva", 40, "Java"),
    new Person("Visitor", 30)
};

for (Person p : people) {
    p.displayInfo();   // Each object runs ITS OWN version!
}

🏆

Why this project matters: It demonstrates every major Class 4 topic in one cohesive application — inheritance with super, encapsulation with private fields, arrays of objects, linear search, bubble sort, and runtime polymorphism.

📋 Quick Revision & Practice Questions

⚡ Quick Revision Checklist ▼

🧬 Inheritance

extends creates is-a relationship. Single parent only. Children inherit fields/methods.

⬆️ super

super(...) must be first line of child constructor. super.method() calls parent version.

🔒 Access

private = same class only. protected = subclasses + package. public = everywhere.

🔄 Override vs Overload

Override = same signature in subclass. Overload = same name, different parameters.

🎭 Polymorphism

Parent reference + child object. Real object's method runs at runtime.

🔍 String Matching

equals(), contains(), indexOf(), or brute-force character comparison.

🪙 Greedy

Coins, fractional knapsack, activity selection, Huffman, SJF. 0/1 needs DP.

🌳 Huffman

Merge two lowest frequencies. Left=0, right=1. Frequent chars get short codes.

✏️ Practice Questions (Click to reveal hints) ▼

1. Create Vehicle with speed and Car extends Vehicle with doors. Use super in constructor. ▼

💡 Call super(speed) as first line of Car constructor. Car constructor: Car(int speed, int doors) { super(speed); this.doors = doors; }

2. Why can Student not access private String name of Person directly? ▼

💡 private fields are hidden from subclasses. Access via a public getter: public String getName() { return name; }

3. Create Shape with area() and subclasses Circle, Rectangle. Use polymorphism. ▼

💡 Store in Shape[] shapes = {new Circle(5), new Rectangle(4,6)}; Loop with for (Shape s : shapes) s.area(); — each runs its own area()!

4. Difference between overloading and overriding (with examples). ▼

💡 Overloading: add(int,int) and add(double,double) in same class. Overriding: Dog.sound() replaces Animal.sound() in subclass.

5. Make change for 63 using coins 25, 10, 5, 1. Show where greedy fails. ▼

💡 63 = 25+25+10+1+1+1 (6 coins). Greedy fails with coins {4,3,1} for amount 6: gives 4+1+1 (3 coins), but optimal is 3+3 (2 coins).

6. Capacity 10; items (w,v): (5,10),(4,40),(6,30),(3,50). Solve fractional. ▼

💡 Sort by v/w: (3,50)→16.67, (4,40)→10, (5,10)→2, (6,30)→5. Take (3,50)=50, then (4,40)=40, then 3/5 of (5,10)=6. Total: 96.

7. Build Huffman tree for AABBBCCCC. Compute total bits. ▼

💡 Frequencies: A=2, B=3, C=4. Merge: A+B=5, then 5+C(4)=9. Assign codes. Total bits ≈ 17 (vs ASCII 72).

8. Activities (start,finish): (1,4),(3,5),(0,6),(5,7),(8,9),(5,9). Select max compatible set. ▼

💡 Sort by finish: (1,4),(3,5),(0,6),(5,7),(8,9),(5,9). Pick (1,4), then (5,7), then (8,9). Result: 3 activities.

9. Add a method to the project that prints only failed students. ▼

💡 for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) if (!students[i].isPass()) students[i].displayStudent();
