yes if you want to call the parent class's f method, you can use the super keyword: public void f(){ super.f(); System.out.println("b"); }

This is an inheritance situation B extends from A therefor B can be handled as A the g method takes an A so B is valid because it extends from A. the output will be 'b' because the class B overrides the definition of the f method. It does becomes a little complex to understand with letters for class and method names so I hope I manage to clarify it a bit.

the method is being overridden so it won't call both the A.f and B.f, only B.f

It's overriden because this methods are not constructors?

So its used a method with an A obj as argument and its called the function. However instead of giving "ab" gives b!
