In Dart, interfaces are not explicitly declared like in some other languages. Instead, you define an interface by creating an abstract class with abstract methods. Let's see how we can code an interface in Dart using an example:
// Define an interface for a shape
abstract class Shape {
// Abstract method to calculate area
double calculateArea();
// Abstract method to calculate perimeter
double calculatePerimeter();
}
In this example, we've defined an interface called Shape
using an abstract class.
The Shape
interface declares two abstract methods: calculateArea()
and calculatePerimeter()
.
Any class that wants to be considered a shape must implement these methods.
