It's in polymorphic way! What do you assign for Interface references?

Other than the name, nothing whatsoever. format is the "natural" name, printf is there for familiarity for C/C++/etc users, as it's very similar to the function of that name in those languages.

As the API docs say:

Java API wrote:A convenience method to write a formatted string to this console's output stream using the specified format string and arguments.

An invocation of this method of the form con.printf(format, args) behaves in exactly the same way as the invocation of con.format(format, args)

every class in java extends Object class
and any class can implement any interface
hence that interface IS-A Object

but that interface is NOT in the inheritance tree

mohitkumar gupta, There are in the same level in the hierarchy! You can't cast one type to another which are in the same level.!
