Thread: java inheritance

in java if a parent class and child class has method with the same name and if an object of child class is made and method is called for that object then why the parent's method is executed ?? for example

public class parent
{
public void a(){
System.out.println("i am parents method");
}

public class child {
public void a()
{
System.out.println("i am child's method");
}

public static void main(string[] args)
{
child c1=new child();
c1.a();
}


when child calls method a() the method of child class should be executed but why it does not happens ?? why the parent;s method a() is executed??

plzz reply soon

oh i forget to write that now consider this code
public class parent
{
public void a(){
System.out.println("i am parents method");
}

public class child extends parent {
public void a()
{
System.out.println("i am child's method");
}

public static void main(string[] args)
{
child c1=new child();
c1.a();
}

<public class parent
{
public void a(){
System.out.println("i am parents method");
}
 
public class child extends parent {
public void a()
{
System.out.println("i am child's method");
}
 
public static void main(string[] args)
{
child c1=new child();
c1.a();
} >

this code display the output "i am parent's method"

while it should display "i am child's method"
because child object has called the method

and sorry if the pattern of my post is wrong. i am new here so don't really know the pattern

<public class myclass1
{
public static void method1()
{
 System.out.println("i am parent method");
}
}
public class MyClass extends myclass1
{
public static void method1()
{
System.out.println("i am child method");
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
  MyClass c1=new MyClass();
  c1.method1();
}
}>

i am parent method

this is the output however output should be

i am child method

because object of child is created
