interface is a specification of method prototype.
all methods in interface are abstract and final.
interface methods are public since they should be available
to third party vendor to provide implementation.they are
abstract because their implementation is left for third
party vendors.
interface contains 0 or more abstract methods.
all methods of interface should implemented in implemented
class.if any method is not implemented then implementation
class should be declared as abstract.
we can't create object to interface.but we can create
reference to interface type.
an interface contains variables ,such as public.static and
final variables.this means all variables of interface are
constant.
an interface cannot implements another interface.
an interface can extend another interface.
it is possible to write a class within an interface.
a class can implements(not extend) multiple interfaces.
abstract class contains 0 or more abstract methods.
all methods of abstract class should be implemented in
subclasses only.
all methods of abstract class should be declared by using
abstract keyword.
