4 Design Patterns Video Tutorial

The document discusses Java object-oriented programming concepts like classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, and static vs non-static methods. It demonstrates creating Dog and Cat subclasses that inherit from an Animal superclass, and shows that subclasses can be referenced by their parent type. Methods like getSound() exhibit polymorphism by having different implementations in subclasses. Static methods can access objects but non-static methods cannot be called from static context.
