Override Method Greetings

Note :

• An instance method is overriden if it is accessible.
• Private methods can’t be overriden because they are not accessible from their own class
• If  a method defined in subclass is private in its superclass then both are totally different methods
• A static method can be inherited, but can’t be overriden
• Redefining a superclass static method in its subclass, in result the method defined in superclass is hidden
