    Default Simple question about methods.

    Consider the following code:

    import java.io.*;
    class Daddy {
      int methodOne( int a, long b ) throws IOException { … }
      float methodTwo( char a, int b ) { … }
    }
    public class Boy extends Daddy { }

    And the methods:
    (α) public static void main( String args[] ) { … }
    (b) int methodOne( int c, long d) throws ArithmeticException { … }
    (c) float methodTwo( char c, int d) { … }

    Witch of them belong to Boy class?
    1. (α) & (β)
    2. (b) & (c)
    3. (α) & (c)
    4.All of them.


    Personaly i believe a) belongs 100% to boy class cause its the main but im not sure about the other two :/ What u think guys?

    Where is the main() method defined?

    Please edit your post and wrap your code with
    [code=java]
    <YOUR CODE HERE>
    [/code]
    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    I do not see the main() method. It's not in the posted code.
