class Human {
public void eat() {
System.out.println("Human is eating");
}
} //closing curly brace for the Human class
class Boy extends Human {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Boy b = new Boy();
b.eat();
}
public void eat() {
System.out.println("Boy is eating");
}
} //closing curly brace for the Boy class
