Notice that this program makes use of one of Java's standard classes: Random. This class
provides pseudorandom numbers. It contains several methods that allow you to obtain
random numbers in the form required by your program. In this example, the method
nextDouble( ) is used. It returns random numbers in the range 0.0 to 1.0.
In this sample program, the two classes, Question and AskMe, both implement the
SharedConstants interface where NO, YES, MAYBE, SOON, LATER, and NEVER are
defined. Inside each class, the code refers to these constants as if each class had defined or
inherited them directly. Here is the output of a sample run of this program. Note that the
results are different each time it is run.
Later
Soon
No
Yes
Interfaces Can Be Extended
One interface can inherit another by use of the keyword extends. The syntax is the same as
for inheriting classes. When a class implements an interface that inherits another interface,
it must provide implementations for all methods defined within the interface inheritance
chain. Following is an example:
// One interface can extend another.
interface A {
void meth1();
void meth2();
}
// B now includes meth1() and meth2() -- it adds meth3().
interface B extends A {
void meth3();
}
// This class must implement all of A and B
class MyClass implements B {
public void meth1() {
System.out.println("Implement meth1().");
}
public void meth2() {
System.out.println("Implement meth2().");
}
public void meth3() {
