Can any class inherit a static method of its super class?
Yes, every class inherits the static methods of its anscestor classes unless a subclass has a method with a signature that is the same as a static method in an ascestor class. in this case, the method in the subclass shadows the method in the anscestor class. The
word "shadows" means that the method in the subclass "casts its shadow and hides the method in the anscestor class".
