Could anyone please help ?

hello
what is the error ?

Whilst yes... That's an error. but in the tradition of teaching them to fish... What is the compiler error you're getting?
buoyant breach
This is the error I use override too
buoyant breach
it seems you're absolutely new to java
yeah,I am

The original error about the incompatibility of the type is correct... Adding @Override is invalid and makes no sense there - leaving you with a different error.

Oh

buoyant breach
no worries, thats why ur here and we will help u 🙂
Thank you

int name - this is the declaration of name in the parent class. When you say this.name you're referring to this field (of type int) but trying to assign it a reference to a String (n).

This is the error I use override too
Why is this error coming ?
shadow wolf
ur animal class declared
public abstract void animalNoise();
public abstract void printInfo();
that means that any implementation of this class, for example Cat, must provide these two methods - exactly as stated
but two issues with that:
- ur cat has no
void animalNoise()method yet - u also dont have a
void printInfo()method yet, u havevoid printInfo(String), but thats not the same
the @Override annotation is helpful and we will get to that in a second - but note that it doesnt influence the actual override-mechanism in java.
the root issue is that ur simply not providing the methods stated by Animal

Now ive did it
shadow wolf
yeah, but is that meaningful?
why do u want printInfo to take an argument?
shouldnt it just print the info of the animal
without the user giving an extra string
and what about ur animalNoise method, why did u remove it entirely?
