No, you cannot create an instance of an interface. An
interface has no implementation - a class that implements
the interface specifies the implementation.
However, you can ofcourse have a reference variable of an
interface type that points to an instance of a class that
implements the interface. For example:
// List is an interface, ArrayList implements interface List
List data = new ArrayList();
It's good practice to program like this - program to an
interface, not an implementation. If you want to know more
about that design principle, see, for example:
