Cloneobject

The document discusses object cloning in Java. It provides an example of a shallow copy where changes to the cloned object are reflected in the original. A deep copy is also demonstrated where changes are not reflected due to the nested object being separately cloned. Inheritance is shown where a PhysicsTeacher class extends the Teacher class and can access protected fields and methods.
