Java Keywords

The document explains three Java keywords: 'this', 'super', and 'final'. The 'this' keyword refers to the current object, 'super' is used to refer to the immediate parent class, and 'final' indicates that a variable, method, or class cannot be changed or overridden. Examples and usage scenarios for each keyword are provided to illustrate their functionality in Java programming.

1. this Keyword :
• “this” keyword refers to the current object
inside a method or constructor.

class A A@5acf9800
{
obj A
}
this

A obj = new
A();
class A{
void show()
{
System.out.println(this);

}
public static void main(String[] args) {
A obj = new A();
System.out.println(obj);
obj.show();
}
}

Output:
A@5acf9800
A@5acf9800
• The keyword ‘this’ refers to the current instance of
the class and can be used to refer to the instance
variables of the class. It is particularly useful when
there is a need to distinguish between instance
variables and local variables that share the same
name within a method or constructor.
public class A {
int x;

// Constructor with a parameter


public A(int x) {
this.x = x;
}

// Call the constructor


public static void main(String[] args) {
A myObj = new A(5);
System.out.println("Value of x = " +
myObj.x);
}
1.1 Usage of ‘this’ keyword :
1) to refer current class instance variable.
2) to invoke current class method.
3) to invoke current class constructor.
4) this can be passed as an argument in the
method call.
5) this can be passed as an argument in the
constructor call.
6) this can be used to return the current class
instance from the method.
2. super Keyword :
• The super keyword in Java is a reference variable which is
used to refer immediate parent class object.
• The keyword “super” came into the picture with the
concept of Inheritance.

1.
• To refer immediate parent class
instance variable.

2.
• To invoke immediate parent class
method.

3.
• To invoke immediate parent class
constructor.
Example program
class Animal{
String color="white";
}
class Dog extends Animal{
String color="black";
void printColor(){
System.out.println(color);//prints color of Dog class
System.out.println(super.color);//prints color of Animal
class
}
}
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
Dog d=new Dog();
d.printColor();
}
}
3. final keyword :
• The final keyword can be used to indicate that
something cannot be changed.
• Once any data member gets declared as final, it can
only be assigned once.
Final

Variables Methods Classes

Stop
Helps to create Prevent from
inheritance by
constant variables method overriding
any child class
class Bike{ class Bike{
final void run(){
final int speedlimit=90;//final
variable System.out.println("running");}
void run(){ }
speedlimit=400;
} class Honda extends Bike{
void run()
public static void main(String {System.out.println("running wit
args[]){ h 100kmph");
Bike9 obj=new Bike(); }
obj.run();
} public static void main(String arg
} s[]){
Honda honda= new Honda();
honda.run();
