public interface Automobile { String describe(); }
class FourWheeler implements Automobile
{
String name;
public String describe(){ return " 4 Wheeler " + name; }
}
class TwoWheeler extends FourWheeler
{
String name;
public String describe(){ return " 2 Wheeler " + name; }
}

---
When TwoWheeler inherits name variable from FourWheeler, why compiler doesn't complain about attempt of defining variable with same name? Thanks in advance.

Why should it? It's called hiding (http://www.xyzws.com/Javafaq/what-is-va ... adowing/15).
