Java - array of different objects that have the same method(s)

Question

I am practicing inheritance.

I have two similar classes that I\'d like to assimilate into one array, so I thought to use the Object class as a superclass since ever

Answer 1

Object doesn't have the method beingShot. If all of the objects in array are of the same class, then your array should be of that same class. Otherwise they all should have same interface implemented or extend the same class. I can't imagine why would you want explicitly extend Object here, it doesn't add any functionality whatsoever.
