Zero. By default they do not implement any interfaces.
Java does not support multiple inheritance. It is done with the help of interfaces in java. a class can implement n number of interfaces, thus showing multiple inheritance. but a class cannot extend multiple classes in java.
Java does not support multiple inheritance; a subclass cannot have more than one parent. Java compensates for this with interfaces. A class can implement multiple interfaces, but can only extend one class.
Any class can extend one class and/or implement multiple interfaces. For example: public class TestClass extends SuperTestClass implements InterfaceA, InterfaceB { // implementations of interface methods in here }
In java we can implement more than one interfaces for a single class but we can't extend a class to more than one super class so ,java indirectly supports multiple inheritance.
A non-instantiable class is the class whose object can be created but cannot be initialized. for example the interfaces and the abstract classes in java.
Java does not have multiple inheritance, so no. Java can use multiple interfaces, though, with the "implements" keyword.

Actually, java does not support multiple inheritance. You can achieve partial multiple inheritance using interfaces but java is not like C or C++ where you can do direct multiple inheritance. However, you can achieve partial multiple inheritance with the help of interfaces. Ex: public class FerrariF12011 extends Ferrari implements Car, Automobile {
Java does not allow the multiple inheritance of concrete classes, though it does allow a "hybrid" inheritance of one concrete class and multiple interfaces.
Interfaces are used in Java to accomplish most of the goals of Multiple Inheritance. For several reasons, Java only supports Single Inheritance for classes - i.e. a class can have only a single parent. The use of Interfaces is how Java attempts to implement most of the positives of the concept of Multiple Inheritance while avoiding its pitfalls.
Java does not support multiple inheritance directly with classes to avoid ambiguity issues, such as the "Diamond Problem." However, it allows achieving multiple inheritance through interfaces. A class can implement multiple interfaces, enabling it to inherit behavior from multiple sources. For example, if two interfaces define similar or different methods, a class implementing both interfaces can provide specific implementations for each method. This approach ensures clarity and avoids conflicts while promoting a clean design. By using interfaces, Java offers the flexibility of multiple inheritance without the complexities and risks associated with direct implementation.
The short answer: because C is not object-oriented. The reason for C++ not having interfaces is, that C++ supports multiple inheritance. Because C++ classes can be derived from more than one base class, so there is no need to have interfaces. In Java, each class has exactly one base class (except the class Object). With the help of interfaces it is possible implement a restricted (and more stable) form of multiple inheritance. Interfaces follow implicitly the following rules: * interfaces are abstract * each method is public abstract * each attribute is public static final
