private method in inheritance in Java

Question

I have confusion about using private methods in inheritance, for example:

public class A {
    private void say(int number){
        System.out.print(\"A:\"+         


        

Answer 1

Subclasses can only invoke or override protected or public methods (or methods without access modifiers, if the superclass is in the same package) from their superclasses. private methods stay in the class in which they're declared and aren't visible to any other class, no matter how it's related.
