How many classes do Java have?

A class — in the context of Java — is a template used to create objects and to define object data types and methods . Classes are categories, and objects are items within each category. All class objects should have the basic class properties.

If you have two classes that would be easier to maintain if they were one, then you have too many . If you have one class that would be easier to maintain if it was two, then you don’t have enough. If you have similar classes that could be just parametrised and become one, that is likely too many.5 Ara 2015
