Answer / chellammal

No. It is not compulsory that an abstract class
should have atleast one abstract method.

One can declare a class as abstract still with full
implementation of methods. This avoids the instantiation
the class

Answer / saurabh m. chande

It is absolutely not necessary to have at-least 1 method as an abstract method in a class which is defined as an abstract.
But it is equally necessary to declare the class as an abstract class if at-least 1 method within that class is declared as abstract method.
Abstract class contains either the method declaration only or complete method implementation.

Answer / chandrasekhar.k

No,It is not mandatory, but sub class of abstract class
should be override by any one of the method from abstract
class .

Ex:i) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
ii) org.apache.struts.actions.DispatchAction, etc.,

namespace ConsoleApplication1
abstract class absClass
{
//A Non abstract method
protected virtual int AddTwoNumbers(int a, int b)
{
return a + b;
}

}
class absDerived : absClass
{
protected override int AddTwoNumbers(int Num1, int Num2)
{
int n = Num1 + Num2;
Console.WriteLine("sum of method is:" + n);
return n;
}
static void Main()
{
//You can create an
//instance of the derived class
absDerived calculate = new absDerived();
int sum = calculate.AddTwoNumbers(10, 20);

Console.Read();
}
}
}

Httpservlet contain purely undefined but it declared as a
Abstract class.so finally concluded is its a wrong opinion
