I’m not quite sure what you are trying to do with this. But I think this will clear up the things for you.
public class Course{
private String course = "CS101";
}
public class FinishedCourse extends Course{
public void displayCourse(){
System.out.println(super.course); //compilation error.
//You cannot access private variables even if it is in direct parent class
}
}
solved derived class not needing some of the parent methods or attributes
