9.6 Class Object
As we discussed earlier in this chapter, all classes in Java inherit directly or indirectly from class Object (package java.lang), so its 11 methods (some are overloaded) are inherited by all other classes. Figure 9.12 summarizes Object’s methods. We discuss several Object methods throughout this book (as indicated in Fig. 9.12).
