Question: Explain the concept of method hiding in Java.

Answer: Method hiding occurs when a subclass provides a static method with the same signature as a static method in its superclass. It does not override the superclass method.

Example:

class Parent { static void display() { /* method implementation */ } }
class Child extends Parent { static void display() { /* hiding method implementation */ } }
