When super class and sub class contains same method including parameters and if they are static. The method in the super class will be hidden by the one that is in the sub class. This mechanism is known as method hiding. Example Live Demo class Demo{ public static void demoMethod() { System.out.println("method of super class"); } } public class Sample extends Demo { public static void demoMethod() { System.out.println("method of sub class"); } public static void main(String args[] ) { Sample.demoMethod(); } } Output method of sub class

When super class and the sub class contains same instance methods including parameters, when called, the super class method is overridden by the method of the sub class. WIn this example super class and sub class have methods with same signature (method name and parameters) and when we try to invoke this method from the sub class the sub class method overrides the method in super class and gets executed. Example Live Demo class Super{ public void sample(){ System.out.println("Method of the Super class"); } } public ... Read More

In the ever−evolving world of software development, understanding and being aware of the limitations of various file systems and operating systems is very critical. One such limitation that developers often encounter in their work is the maximum file name length limit. Various file systems and platforms have varying restrictions on the length of file names, and this can hugely impact the way we handle and store files in our applications. In this comprehensive article, we will explore various ways how to use Python to determine the maximum file name length limit on different systems. We will be providing a few ... Read More

In Python, the maximum file size that can be opened depends on the operating system and the filesystem. In general, modern operating systems and filesystems support very large file sizes, so the practical limit is often much higher than what you would ever need. For example, on a 64-bit version of Windows or Linux with NTFS or ext4 filesystems, the maximum file size is several exabytes (1 exabyte is 1 billion gigabytes). This is far beyond the capacity of current storage devices and most applications, so it's unlikely to be a limiting factor in practice. In Python, you can open ... Read More

Overloading is the mechanism of binding the method call with the method body dynamically based on the parameters passed to the method call.Static methods are bonded at compile time using static binding. Therefore, we cannot override static methods in Java.

ZIP is an archive file format used to for lossless data compression. One or more directories or files are used to create a ZIP file. ZIP supports multiple compression algorithms, DEFLATE being the most common. ZIP files have .zip as extension. In this article we are going to discuss how to create a Zip file using Python. Creating uncompressed ZIP file in Python Uncompressed ZIP files do not reduce the size of the original directory. As no compression is sharing uncompressed ZIP files over a network has no advantage as compared to sharing the original file. Using shutil.make_archive to create ... Read More
