Defining a class :

A class is a user defined data type with a template that serves to define its properties.It is a blueprint from which individual objects are created.In java variables are termed as Instances of classes, which are the actual Objects.

The basic form of a class definition is :

class classname [extends superclassname ]
{
[ fields declaration; ]
[ methods declaration; ]
}

The keyword extends indicates that the properties of  superclassname class are extended to the classname class.
Fields and methods are declared inside the body.
