4. Variable Hiding: References vs Objects

Scenario

What happens when both Parent and Child have a variable with the same name? Unlike methods, variables are NOT overridden.

Code Block

class Super {
    String name = "SuperClass";
}

class Sub extends Super {
    String name = "SubClass";
}

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Super obj = new Sub();
        System.out.println("Name: " + obj.name);
        
        Sub actualObj = (Sub) obj;
        System.out.println("Actual Name: " + actualObj.name);
    }
}
