Apples and oranges. Abstract classes can be public, but they don't have to be. Public classes can be abstract, but they don't have to be. So I guess that's more like comparing apples to fruit?

An abstract class is kind of a template class which cannot be instantiated w/o adding some concrete code to it. A public class is simply a class that may be accessed by any other class w/o further restrictions.

You sure about that definition?
public class Test{ public static void main(String... args){ AbstractTest at = new AbstractTest(){}; ExtendingClass et = new ExtendingClass(); } } public abstract class AbstractTest{} public class ExtendingClass extends AbstractTest{}

As told earlier both are different concepts.
Re: What's difference between public class and abstract class?
Hi,
abstract class can contain zero or more abstract methods. It mean if a class contain abstract methods declare that class as abstract class by using abstract keyword. But whenever we apply the public on a class , it is possible to access that class inside and outside the package. That's why both are different.
