Answer 1

Save a copy of your code as new code bit in SoloLearn, then share link to the saved code, in your post's Description.

Asking code related question without the presence of the code was like asking a stranger to tell your fortune. None of us here knows what you're doing with the code, you can't simply ask why ...

Answer 2

public class Program
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
Shape s=new Shape();
Circle c=new Circle();
s.color="select color";
c.color1="white";
s.display();
c.display1();

}
class Shape{
String color;
void display(){
System.out.println(color);
}
class Circle extends Shape{
String color1;
void display1(){
System.out.println(color1);
}
}
}
}

Answer 3

This is i have written the code in my intellij. But its asking me to make class as static

Answer 4

But when i was looking at others code they were not creating static class

Answer 5

An object of `Shape` class is instantiated inside Program.main(), which is a static method.

Shape s = new Shape();

Always remember, anything used inside static methods will also need to be defined as static (including that `Shape` class), to match the scope (class wise scope opposed to instance wise scope).

Your snippet was missing the definition of `Circle` class.
